The federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as food stamps and meant to provide food to the poor and needy, must be doing a heck of a job.
How else it is explained that thousands of those recipients are doing so well with tax-funded assistance that they can afford to drive Bentleys.
And Ferraris.
And Lamborghinis.
And Maseratis.
And Porsches.
And more.
It was Brooke Rollins, President Donald Trump’s agriculture secretary, who explained that the federal government is evaluating data from states, mostly Republican states, that have provided such documentation.
She said the details confirm that in “just ONE state,” those benefits recipients are driving “3 Bentleys – 3 Ferraris – 11 Lamborghinis – 59 Maseratis – 141 Porsches – 244 Alfa Romeos – 306 Land Rovers – 2,098 Teslas.”
She said, “We need to defend our nutrition programs for those most in need, not for scammers gaming the system.”

Social media commenters offered little sympathy:
“Who in the heck has been administering these programs? We pay these lackeys to hand out benefits willy nilly? We pay them?!!! Fire ’em straight up! No excuses.”
And, “Glad I paid my taxes on time. My car is a 2015.”
A report at Just the News said the state was not identified.
The study was done by the Foundation for Government Accountability and tied ownership of 14,000 luxury vehicles to food stamp recipients.
The report noted, “The luxury car brands are among the most expensive in the nation, with Lamborghinis costing over $680,000 … Ferraris are worth over $600,000 and Bentleys range from $250,000 to $414,000.”
