☆☆☆☆☆☆Are You on Food Stamps?☆☆☆☆☆☆

What a stupid thing to say!

Most Federal programs overstep States Rights and balloon your Debt.

The majority of American Voters have voted to drain that debt swamp.

Your point of view is not on point.

Maybe you should out some clothes on , stop waving your dick around and grow up.
You really are just a full time troll now huh?
 
This thread is about food stamps, so yes, please go find your bum chums and troll in one of their felchfest threads. You’re not welcome here.

42 Million Americans use food stamps…and the program is a mess of expensive waste and corruption.

Most Federal programs overstep States Rights, waste money, duplicate services and balloon your Debt.

The majority of American Voters have voted to drain that debt swamp.

About 10% of American Lit Users are on Food Stamps.

(Maybe some of them are the triggered trolls here who can’t seem to be able to afford shirts or pants?)

How will the funding reductions affect them?
Only a matter of time before you go off on a rant about your peculiar predilections Pedro. And then it will be off to perma-ban land again.

Do you all have a special group page where you discuss your issues? Maybe you can share some of your stories about how.you get your American food stamps?
 
“We shouldn’t slash life-sustaining initiatives just to provide a disproportionate tax break to the wealthy and the well-connected,” said Florida Rep. Kathy Castor, co-chair of the Congressional Children’s Health Care Caucus. “

For the working poor of Lit, these cutbacks will be devastating.

There are single moms on the General Board, for example, that have to choose between the electric bill and food.

Yes there are illegals' here and they pick half of the vegetables you eat. So let not have food because they have no pickers? Just saying....
 
I think snap should be extremely rigid on what you can use it for. Obesity is the biggest health concern in this country and allowing people to buy garbage doesn’t help. Obesity costs this country billions upon billions every year and is the main driver of the exorbitant cost of insurance premiums and the overall cost of healthcare. The problem is shit food is cheap and healthy food isn’t. But people don’t weigh the consequences in the future vs their pocketbook now.

So the poor should set the example for the gluttonous wealthy?

Food privilege?

You're a God damned control freak. One suspects your adult kids are "no contact" with you.
 
At least make SNAP a healthy option.
This has always been my issue with food stamps. absolutely no junk food should be allowed. no soda, no candy, nothing garbage. WIC tells you what you can buy. Food stamps should be like WIC. If you can't make food stamps last, then stop buying premade food. For the $5 to buy a single serving of a (decent) microwave meal, you can buy a whole chicken and make 6 different meals out of just its carcass. Add another $5 and you can add some carrots and onions and be fed for 3 days. Add another $5 and you have enough rice to last several more meals. I used to know people who got $600 in food stamps per month and couldn't make that last to the end because they never once bought a vegetable. I'm all for food stamps to help the poor, but junk food puts a burden on Medicaid. As a middle classer, I can't benefit from food stamps or Medicaid, I can only be a victim of it, and since I'm paying for it, I really feel only healthy foods should ever be allowed.

In Europe, healthy food is less expensive.

That's what needs to change before the discussion of food stamps on junk food takes place

It's simple math -
orange juice - $3
Orange soda - $1

Your'e buying the soda every time.

For me the issue is abuse. At this point I've seen it hundreds of times. It is very easy to scam the system. It's been explained to me several times by different people. show up to the offices looking dirty, tell them a sob story while pushing whatever minority status you may have no matter how absurd ("the elizabeth warren") and you will walk out with free stuff. Multiply something like this millions of times with millions of illegals who shouldn't be here and its just the start of a very broken system.

It should be a finite resource for people in need. You get x amount of bucks over x amount of time and that's it. If you want to reset you need to go back to work until something else bad happens to you (god forbid).
