Just don't get it.......how do these people qualify?

Someone close to me qualifies for EBT benefits - raising three kids and works but doesn't make enough to get by without help. She's always looking for a better paying job but it's harder than many think to make a livable wage. And no, she doesn't smoke, is a moderate drinker, doesn't eat out, no tatoos, no drug problems - and does a good job providing healthy food for her kids.

Yes, there are people at all ends of the income spectrum that abuse the system for personal gain - but I prefer not to assume everyone does.
