Luddite that he is VDH doesn’t recognize the fact that EBT cards are designed to ensure that people do not spend Federal and state food benefit dollars on items other than food. His assumption that the woman bought the TV with an EBT is ridiculous, when the terminals for EBT’s at Wal Mart prevent using them to pay for TV’s and like merchandise. Also note that his assumption that poor people don’t deserve televisions in a modern world where TV”s are a major source of societal discourse, some education, and norms is really just an extension of Mitt’s 47 percent statement.
