My point is you can’t force people to take care of themselves or their kids, regardless of whether you give them food stamps or just cash. Sure, food stamps guide them perhaps in the right direction, but there’s no guarantee those parents will use the food stamps responsibly. Bad parents will be bad parents. Those bad parents that would let their kids starve if they were given money rather than food stamps should have their kids taken away from them. But I don’t think most people on food stamps are like that. So then the question is is the overhead worth that marginal case?
