Strip Club Allegedly Accepts Food Stamps for Lap Dances and Drugs

An Ohio strip club had its liquor license revoked Thursday for allegedly accepting food stamps for lap dances and illegal drugs.

The Ohio Liquor Commission announced Thursday that it was revoking the liquor license for Sharky’s Lounge in Harrison Township after investigators caught employees exchanging more than $2,000 in food stamps for lap dances and illegal drugs—including cocaine, fentanyl, carfentanil, heroin, and methamphetamine—in exchange for their benefits.

Authorities had been investigating the strip club since May 2017 and conducted a five-month investigation into the club’s operations.

Well, we got places right here that accept SNAP cards for live crabs!
These could be pets, or freed!

But seriously, a working stiff can hardly afford fresh crabs for a nice meal, but welfare rats can have them all the time!

Let's rethink this EBT thing. Billions are going down the tubes and all that we do is spend even more money to chase them.

This abuse has been common knowledge since existence. Why hasn't it been corrected or should I ask why won't it be corrected?

I can tell the crab thing with EBT really bothers a number of you. Having come here from afar, and not being accustomed to eating blue crabs often, I didn't immediately get it. But the fact that some folks can have them for free really irks in your crawl. Because you consider them to be such a delicacy. And they are.

Interesting.

I see abuse of the SNAP cards with Joe Blow being driven to Walmart by Bob Smith. Smith gets his groceries in his cart, Joe has his cart full of beer. Joe swipes his card to pay for the groceries, and then Smith gives Joe cash for his efforts! Now Joe pays for his beer and cigarettes right there at the same checkout!

Clerk just shakes her head.

8:32 Many sell their SNAP groceries this way, I am a Cashier at a store, not Walmart, and see this a lot. My manager has actually told me to MYOB when I told him about the abuse.

I guess it's a customers choice on how they use their taxpayer paid benefits.
