System Glitch or Test of Human Morals?

Black Friday comes early as computer glitches cause welfare benefits frenzy. In some Walmart stores, customers emptied shelves like it was Black Friday, while in others, no one could buy anything -- all thanks to a weekend of glitches with the nation's welfare system.

Amazing how so many people on both sides had no issue with stealing. Some literally stole and others used money they knew wasn't theirs to buy items.

This just goes to show how stuck we are as a country. Those that have lost all ability to provide for themselves would physically destroy the country is their benefits disappeared.

I'm just glad I take advantage of the 2nd amendment to protect myself and my family when this happens across the country.

Other nearby stores took an innovative approach.
they said "We are not accepting EBT cards until card limits are evident again".

Wal-Mart is lagging in innovation. what a brilliant innovation!
if I were a skeptical, cynical guy, I might say the Wal-Marts in question were taking advantage of the system glitch to file a dodgy claim for re-imbursement from these EBT card programs.
