There is a scenario (poor kid with a couple of expensive toys) where this would be acceptable (gifts, found, others I'm sure), but I'm guessing it's messed up the vast majority of the time.  On the other hand, it's pretty much the welfare queen argument, so it probably is in no way as prevalent as we might assume.

Welfare fraud is wrong, obviously, and should be smashed when discovered, but we probably shouldn't spend a lot of resources trying to find it.

Food is a continuous expense, unlike footwear (which if expensive are more durable and therefore a better investment)
While that's usually true (though obviously not always...just because something is expensive doesn't mean it's necessarily better) for people who's feet have stopped growing, it's a HUGE waste of money if you're out growing shoes every ~6 months.  That's fine if you have the money to burn, not so fine otherwise.  Still not cool to judge somebody if you don't know the details....but if you DO know the details, judge the funk on.
