Now State of Ohio gives cigarettes to welfare recipients?

2. It's totally true!

Back in 2015 Gov. Mike DeWine started a program for Ohio farmers that were going broke to grow tobacco for export. But then when trump started his tariff BS the farmers got stuck with the tobacco. To appease the angry farmers DeWine made a deal with RJ Reynolds who would make the cigarettes but not sell them because the tobacco quality was inconsistent. So the state of Ohio had to pay for the cigarettes to be made and then find a way to distribute them. Long story short, the easiest way to dump them was to distribute them through assistance programs. In Ohio, DeWine had the unflattering nickname Bum since he got into politics. And the term for getting a free cigarette in Ohio became "Bumming a smoke." Most people think that expression's been around since the mid-20th century, but it's only a couple years old. It's called the Mandela Effect.
