EBT is different from WIC then I guess.
When we had my son - wife was on bedrest for a month, kid was in ICU for 2 months he was early and we had no insurance. I made 6.00 an hour (2000) - we used WIC. Covered the formula and vegetables for her. But there wasn't anything that could be called "left over"
Never had EBT or something that was just a general thing - WIC was tied directly to the kid.

These young parents caught off guard must be offspring of the dudes that since January 20 2008 disregarded the idea of stocking up on components and turdy-turdy ammo.
Have 6 shells to their name My Daughter put it out on FB that she has frozen breast milk for anyone who really needs it. She doesn't buy formula for my granddaughter.

Are people too dumb to realize that all this is part of their mass depopulation plan?
"Oh [bleep], there's a formula shortage, let's not have anymore kids yet." Are people too dumb to realize that Cows produce milk suitable for kids to drink ? Many here and their grown up children never had formula.

Because if you're on WIC - they give you just enough coupons to last until it runs out - then more. You don't get to just buy a pallet at a time. IE - 4 chits for formula, gets you through the month, 4 more show up. Rinse and repeat. That's WIC, but the majority that are getting WIC are also getting food stamps (SNAP) which has no limit on how much baby formula you can buy. Most of those on food stamps get more than they can spend on food each month. The country stores around me used to take food stamps for beer, gas, cigarettes, etc. at 50 cents on the dollar. They'd sell them $10 worth of beer and swipe the card for $20. They just rang it up as food instead of beer before they swiped the card. Highly illegal, but they were all doing it for the locals they knew. I never heard of any getting caught and I'm sure some are still doing it. Certain groups are pretty much immune to scrutiny.

I'm waiting to hear what the White House says about this matter. They'll probably tell us that it's only "transitory", like what they told us about a few other things, too.

Actually, [i]this^ ^ ^ is exactly what government assistance is supposed to be used for. It's not supposed to be a career choice for entitled hood rats, or to buy good will from border jumping foreigners. Some directly to the east here have 3 generations in the section 8 that have never punched a clock. I know this because the woman told me face to face. She's a little older than me, and her daughter lives there with the son. None have ever contributed to the system, but live well off of it. Helping deserving US citizens out with my tax contributions doesn't bother me. It's supposed to work that way, and be something to help citizens out of a tight spot. The career welfare leeches need to be taken off and reduce the burden on the infrastructure. There'd be plenty of resources and funds available for the necessary bumps in life's road if we found the nutz to trim the suckers from the plant. The career beaurecrats always dip into the funds designed for the elderly and disabled as punishment for rocking the boat

Yep !!! I see it all the time at the local stores.

My wife came across this on Facebook. Just posting it in case it could help someone out. From 1960.
Baby formula
13 oz Pet evaporated milk
20 oz water
2 level tablespoons Karo syrup
Pour 4 oz into each of 6 bottles Evaporated milk and water. Isn't that just whole milk ?? As I recall, most babies were fed with whole milk for centuries and formula is only a recent thing. I understand that some babies cannot do milk. With that in mind shouldn't the mom's who can feed whole milk just do that and leave the formula for those parents who really need the formula ?? kwg

Pharmaceutical companies have done a pretty good job of making sure breast milk is no longer a viable option for most Americans.

Amazing how the human race has raised their young for 2000 years without a factory produced baby formula.

There are also other options like goats milk. Pet milk reminds me of an advertising campaign when they first introduced the product. They awarded an honorable mention but didn't use the old dairy farmer's wife's entry. Went something like this: No tits to pull No hay to pitch Just poke a hole In the son of a bitch!
