Debate & Discuss / Re: Food stamps for fast food

As a food stamp user i FIRMLY disagree with EBT being used to purchase fast food. The most a person can get in most states is $200. That isn't really even enough to eat a weeks worth of McDonald's anyways then you have people loading up on fast food, burning through their money, then starving at the end of the month. Or the other scary alternative, people being more inclined to sell their foodstamps to other people.
An alternative I like is to have the EBT card available in the hotbar area of the deli of the grocery store. Many of them have soup bars, daily cooked food, and cooked chickens. This would allow someone to get a heated meal for a decent price that is healthier for you, as opposed to sticking them with day old cold chicken.
