My first job I had was working at a grocery store which was surrounded by goverment subsidize housing. Thats when I learned first hand how bad the system is abused. They would buy very expensive food products then pay for it with their food stamps and then I would then load them up in their new cars. This was an everyday thing and at that age I just could not figure out how these people could get food stamps in the first place. Then came the next summer (I only worked while on summer break) and the same people using food stamps getting in their even newer car while my family was working for everything we had. I know some people really need food stamps but the abuse from what I saw out weighed the people who actually needed food stamps.
