The problem with making judgements like this is that every individual or family who is receiving assistance has their own unique circumstances, and every "luxury" item has a story behind it. If you don't have all of that information, you can't be sure of anything.

People inherit and are gifted things, hold onto stuff from better times, find amazing bargains on used goods, save for months or years to buy that one special item they will treasure, and yes, they may even occasionally splurge for some special occasion. A family which has had all of these things happen over time may acquire a sizeable stack of nice things, all while working hard but still making only a very little money and qualifying for income-based assistance fair and square.

I suppose some people will be mean-spirited enough to say that anyone on assistance should sell any nice stuff they do have regardless of what it is or where it came from (as though that would be likely to get them off assistance for any length of time...unlikely, unless we're talking about truly mind-bogglingly extravagant items, which I'm not.) I don't really know what to say to people like that.
