Anyone notice the type of vehicles lining up for free food? New SUVs costing 50-70K, new pick up trucks 35k-to 45K, new cars costing ?? They just drive up an the volunteers throw boxes of food in them. Another idea not well thought through I would say.
 

There is one at a high school near me. As I drove by, yes....I saw pricey vehicles & chuckled.
Reminded me of those panhandlers at the bottom of freeway off ramps - smoking a cigarette ($5-$6.00/pack) & chatting on their smart phone. And sometimes they have a well-groomed, well-fed dog next to them.
 
Ya can't eat a pickup.

Lots of people live paycheck to paycheck and now is not the best time to lecture/judge hungry people about the need for an emergency fund to get through tough times.

I'm sure there are a few scammers that are willing to sit in a line several miles long for hours to get a few free groceries but my belief is that those folks are in the minority. I would encourage those scammers to use the time spent waiting for a box of free food to come up with a more profitable scam.

People can easily find themselves in financial jams at time like this. I am reluctant to be too critical of them since the world as they knew it has fallen apart.

Kinda reminds me of my school kids who were on free lunch and whose parents picked them up from school in a $50,000 4WD truck with fancy wheels. But I'm not begrudging people food. But I do kinda hope Karma bites the scammers in the butt.
 
Anyone can get a new car with a bank loan and the younger ones do this all the time....and now they are probably without jobs stuck with a big fat car payment....maybe even embarrassed to be in those lines, looking like they're rich.....we never know a person's situation.
