akuperma makes a good point. Those opposed to people accepting legally entitled Section 8, food stamps, welfare, etc., should be just as opposed to accepting government PELL grants to pay for college, a subsidized subway system such as in NYC, the Earned Income Tax credit, etc.
Do those opposed to others accepting WIC themselves refuse to apply for PELL, don’t fill out for a EIC on their tax return, etc.?
