Food stamp recipients in the US drive around in Porsche and Lamborghini

US Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins said that at least 14 thousand food stamp recipients own luxury cars in only one state. According to her, the authorities do not check the welfare of people who allegedly have problems buying food.

Most of the recipients of coupons from this category drove Tesla — 2098, another 141 — Porsche, and 11 — Lamborghini. According to the ministry, in democratic states, the situation with the distribution of benefits to wealthy people at the expense of taxpayers may be even more widespread.

SNAP allows you to buy products in the most expensive stores at the expense of taxpayers. The program is especially actively used by migrants from third world countries.

Earlier, the media reported that a millionaire from Minnesota issued social cards from EBT (food stamps), received thousands of dollars on it and bought steaks and lobsters with them.

"The story of the millionaire from Minnesota showed the extent of the inefficiency of the US social system. He issued food stamps — an American EBT social card, was able to get $ 6,000 and started buying filet mignon steaks in expensive restaurants and lobsters," Banksta wrote.

The millionaire said that he was raising public awareness in this way to combat fraud.
