This is an excellent program that helps those families with pregnant women, infants, and/or young children on limited incomes with FOOD. But, not jut ANY food, they tell you exactly what types of food you can get. They limit the brands of breakfast cereals participants can get - none of that hollow-caloried all sugar-no nutritional value stuff... You can't sell the tickets to anyone else. You can't buy steaks, etc. with the coupons - just reasonable nutritional food.

Why can't the "food stamp" program work like that?
my mom was a wic nutritionist for years. she has got some good deadbeat stories.

one of the fixes this country needs (along with term limits and a line item veto) is a constitutional end to all welfare.
