O, to be in Kansas

Not if I'm a welfare recipient. They've just passed a law that prevents welfare recipients from withdrawing more than $25 a day from an ATM. I guess it doesn't matter that the banks don't allow you to withdraw in five-dollar increments; so, you could only withdraw $20. And the fee obviously doesn't count; the state will get its $1 fee and the bank may get another fee. Of course, the fact that it looks like a violation of federal law, which would put federal distributions to Kansas at risk, should not be ignored. The law also specifies that you can't spend the money on a cruise ship.
