I need your opinion..

Ok, so this is a bit tricky to follow, so keep up if you can, lol.

I have this friend, Jason, whom is married to Amber, and together the have a daughter, Taylor, who is only 7.

Now, these people had absolutely no place to live. Me, and my family, took them into our home and welcomed them with open arms because I thought that Jason was one of my BEST FRIENDS. He had never done me wrong, always stuck up for me no matter what, etc. So, I told them they could stay here a week because we really didn't have the room. During that week they were suposed to be going to welfare to get food stamps, cash, housing, etc. Anything they could get, just to get them by until they got jobs. No problem. They went, got emergency food stamps and medical covers and they told us that they had to wait on their cash because something about the government being behind, which IS true because we checked.

Doesn't sound like a big deal, right? WRONG! What was supposed to be one week turned into an entire month. In that month, neither Jason nor Amber were able to find a job (big surprise there, right?). They didn't do anything around the house to help. Hell, I had to clean up after THEM on a daily basis. They didn't cook, not even offered to help. They wouldn't discipline their child. She would throw temper tantrums at least 2 times a day, to which they always gave in to her and gave her what she wanted. (I'd really hate to see her when she gets older.) They did, after about 2 weeks, gave us $85 worth of their food stamps. So, now here it is a month into them staying and all the sudden welfare has an apartment for them, with NO income. Seems fishy, don't you think? Anyways, so yesterday I asked Jason if him and I could go grocery shopping to get like another $100 or so worth of food. ($200 for staying somewhere and not doing anything is damn good if you ask me). He said yes. Well, later that evening, my step-dad asked Jason if he could just give me the card and the pin number and I'd go shopping because my step-dad needed Jason's help with some stuff outside and he knew that they were leaving today. It was now or never. Jason flat out told me he didn't trust me with his card. Why? He said it was because he had gotten ripped off before. Keep in mind that I have known this guy 3+ years and welcomed him into my house, but he doesn't trust me. So after we fight for a bit, he coughs up the card and pin and I go shopping. After I check out, I looked at the reciept to make sure everything rang out right only to see that there is a CASH balance on his card. (Remember, supposedly he hadn't gotten his cash assistance yet.) I went outside, called the number on the card and listened to the last 10 transactions on the card to find out that they have had cash since August 19. That's a month that they have had this, but we didn't know. We didn't ask them for any cash at all, so why hide it?

I'm wondering if this is not why he didn't want to give me his card.

So, my question to you is: Do I confront him about it and risk losing what friendship there is left, or forgive but never forget?
