Massachusetts Democrat Gov. Deval Patrick vetoes ban on purchasing tattoos, manicures, porn with EBT cards or food stamps

democrat-baby-logoMaybe the slimy Democrats and Deval Patrick can blame Mitt Romney for this one too. If you are a tax payer in Massachusetts, you get to fund EBT cards for those who want to buy tattoos, manicures, body piercings or porn. You see, once again it’s all in the name of liberal compassion. Deval Patrick doesn’t want to ‘humiliate poor people.’ I was always under the assumption that the safety net for poor getting EBT was for food, clothing, and other essential things. I guess I just don’t under the whole Marxist Progressive Democrat new definition of ‘essentials’ which includes tattoos, manicures, porn and body piercings.

“I’m not going to do anything that makes vulnerable people beg for their benefits. This notion of humiliating poor people has got to be separated from how we make a program, and frankly separated and disposed of, from how we make a program work and work well,”
