3. If you can't not buy alcohol with foodstamps, you will not buy pot.
If you can not buy a tobacco cigarette with foodstamps, you will not buy pot. Pot is not a necessity.

5. Only if they actually sell it in the herb aisle in the grocery store
in between the Basil and the Parsley. Which isn't very likely.

I'm for legalization in CA (and nationwide); and against allowing it to be bought with food stamps.
And so voted. It's a legitimate OP, and I thank you for posting it. The issue should be discussed.

If we were talking about hemp cereal I might understand why you feel the need to discuss. Pot will be in the same category as cigarettes and alcohol.

14. Yes, that would be awesome.
But that isn't how the food stamp program is set up. You can't even buy a lot of actual food with it.

Are people allowed to buy cigarettes with food stamps? I don't think so.

32. you should be able to buy toothpaste, dental floss and a toothbrush
with food stamps. But you should not be able to buy pot with food stamps. Marajuana is not food.
