Right, and when someone with one of these food allotment services comes into the business that is there to sell things to make money, and grabs the Pepsi, Cheetos, ribs, whatever they're not supposed to have, and brings them up to the counter, guess what happens? It gets rung up, charged, and away they go. When it's happening tens or hundreds of thousands of times per day and the enforcement personnel are in the single or double digits, of people who really don't care about enforcing it anyways, how much fraud is prevented? A token amount for job justification.
If fraud was being prevented, then someone in a poorer area like me would almost never see it happening. Instead it happens all the time, openly, and without fuss. People talk on the train here about how to work the system.
