In some Wal-Mart in this country recently,there was a computer glitch that read some kind of welfare benefit cards people had as having "unlimited benefits",leading some of the card holders to clean out the shelves holding certain items the cards would pay for,I'm thinking Probly food products.......Those fools were not bright enough to realize that all the card issuers have to do is match the card # with the time/date stamp,and the amount purchased vs. the amount allowed????...Such is the mind set of the " take the money and run" crowd,and "we will deal with the ramifications later",of which I am SURE there will be serious ramifications for those involved,Probly sooner than later,as there should be...........

Nope Wart9[=hog sorry to say but there are NO ramifications for the people who did this. It was foodstamp / SNAP cards and Xrox who runs the cards had a glitch and it caused them to show NO cap on the card. It happened in 17 states and what suppose to happen in these situations is to not allow over $50 of spending but Walmart in Lousianna decided to let them buy all they wanted to.
Now these people KNEW how much was on their own SNAP cards but they took advantage and went wild. One woman had .49 cents and she bought over $700.00 worth of groceries. The news said some people got 8 buggies loaded down and then came back for more.

When all was said and done, Walmart has to pay for the food the people bought. The people themselves, will face no punishment at all. Isn't it nice the way the government rewards DISHONEST people but you see people trying to do the right thing getting in trouble every day in the news.

Didn't see it but that's the mind set of the entitlement crowd. It's sad that so many feel the government owes them a living. And I'll bet the over whelming majority of them voted for Obama ... the freebie king.

the honest and hard working people, even when ill (but Gov't won't allow them to be on disability, while others who don't need it...take advantage and live high off the Gov't trough) my daughter, Tami, faces the same situation from a worldly business and because she is very ill with Fibromyalgia, they expect her to do and disrespect her because she cannot do what the others can! They keep cutting her hours and she is afraid that she will lose her ins (which she helps pay for out of her low income paycheck) which she absolutely needs for her meds and her husbands, too!

Our nation and the world has become worse since Obama and his Czars with most of the Senate being Liberal Dems! They have turned it upside down by pushing Islamic Laws, Socialism and Communism on the people, that the majority don't want....but they know what is better for us, so they say! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! Double Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Thank God we have a Savior Who will bring peace to His people when Jesus comes quickly and catches His own away into our new Homes in His glorious Kingdom! Amen! Ma
