Stop LINK cards in high-end stores

Just wondering if anybody else is aware that the LINK card can be used at high-end grocery stores? And now, they are interacting with farmer’s markets. To me, this is outrageous. I for one work for a living. My income does not allow me to shop at the high-end food chain, or farmer’s markets.

It has also been made aware to me that people can and do have more than one free government issue cellphone. Who is screening these people? One just has to sit outside a low-income health center to see all the fancy and pricey cars parked outside. Women come in with super duper hairdos, beautiful professional nails, name brand purses. How is this to be happening?

Where can fraud of the system be reported? I, for one, and I am sure many more, have no idea how many cheats of the system are out there. It’s really sad that major high-end stores and now farmer’s markets are grabbing this money, too.

Check out this website, www.experimentalstation.org. This is a way for more lazy people to cash in on hardworking taxpayer dollars. Shame on you, stores that allow this.
