And we know for a fact, it's not even debatable, that the vast majority of these people are committing fraud.

As the Wall Street Journal reported, quote, three quarters of adult food stamp beneficiaries are overweight or obese.

Only 3% are underweight.

Yes, three quarters of the 25 million adults who get food stamps are fat, which by definition means they don't need food stamps.

But they're getting them anyway because we don't require a weigh-in to qualify.

It's the honor system.

As long as they say they're looking for work, they get to steal your money.

And on top of that, according to the Center for Economic and Policy Research, quote, adults with disabilities make up about 25% of SNAP recipients, nearly twice their share in the overall population.

Well, how do we know these people aren't faking a diagnosis to get out of the work requirement as limited as it is?

That's a good question, since we already know that millions of Americans are defrauding the system already.

It's not exactly a stretch to suggest that they're also lying about a disability to get out of the work requirement.

In fact, we know that's happening.

We know there are a ton of fake disabled people walking around out there.

Think about how many people claim that they have a disability just so they can bring their dog on a plane.

Think about how many people are willing to, able-bodied people, normal people seemingly, are willing to lie about that just for the advantage of bringing a dog on a plane.

Did Nixon consider any of this when he drastically expanded food stamps?

Probably not.

And by the way, when Nixon said it would be impossible in his system for people to get more money by not working, he was wrong about that too.

One of my producers worked on a property that was converted into Section 8 housing in Kansas City, Missouri.

And as part of this process, they ran the numbers on a single mother of a three-year-old and a five-year-old child.
