So what happens when the Federal government can’t issue Nov Food Stamps?

This. Done with the mooching. Keep it closed for a year, give them plenty of time to job hunt.

Tell those military guys to get a new job if they want to feed their families. A whole lot of grunts are on SNAP.

Where do you people get this idea? I think many of you are literally blind to the people that live around you. Don’t you go into corner stores and watch people pay?

Data.

Yes and head start… because they’re Christian.

This is how you know the Evangelicals don’t actually believe in God or any of the other crap they proclaim. A real Christian would be scared for their lives that God is keeping track of every soul starved due to their votes and will be holding to them account when the time comes.

This information is available online. Here is Louisiana, Johnson’s state as an example:

Whom Does SNAP Reach?

In federal fiscal year 2024, it helped:

847,100 Louisiana residents, or 18% of the state population (1 in 5)

We’re at the point where our elected officials care more about protecting a pedophile than their constituents literally starving to death. Thanks Speaker.

Ok, so you just assume everyone in Louisiana is MAGA, especially if they are on SNAP? Surely you're smarter than that...

Honestly, this might have to be the thing to do. Blue states will come in to rescue their people. Let the red state MAGAs learn some valuable lessons about the their voting history. Same with their insurance premiums.

The D’s can only try to save people from themselves for so long.

Giving people handouts is not saving people from themselves. We as Democrats should be putting community farms around neighborhoods, planting fruit trees in public parks, bringing back home ec, teaching children in schools how to plant a garden, teaching them how to cook, so the next generation isn’t as dependent on a failing system. Giving them money to buy ultra processed garbage food isn’t saving them from anything.

Yes, and it’s part of the larger war against women in project 2025

Not necessary, but there is correlation.
You could be ones of the well off Maga, but Louisiana vote 61% Trump. And it is one of the least educated and poor states, among other like West Virginia, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama who vote overwhelmingly to Trump.

Why do you assume everyone is living off of ultra processed garbage? Yes, people living on couches or SRO rooms probably are. Hard to make your own organic wheat bread when you only have a microwave and hot plate and work 60 hours on your feet every week. But many people buy whole or minimally processed ingredients to make their meals, or buy ultra processed when it is in fact cheaper on a macro basis (see hot dogs versus steak, for example).

I agree we could do more to teach people how to garden, but not all soils are suitable for growing things, particularly in urban areas that were built up in the asbestos/lead based paint/PCBs everywhere era. It’s quite an upfront investment to build and fill raised planters or containers, and the results are far from guaranteed. Buying greenhouse grown may very well be the more economical choice.

Except for the part where it’s keeping people from starving to death or deciding between rent and food. This is going to create crime and homelessness so that we can give welfare to the hyperwealthy, which is also the reason that people have to work fulltime and also get good benefits.

Jesus H Christ, please go stand in the corner and come back when you are capable of adult thoughts. Be embarrassed.

It’s also just a plain stupid response.

Hey guys, we should help these people because their houses are on fire!

“Durrrr, naw, let’s just teach’um how to dig wells to get their own water! I am so smart.”

People will starve. They will riot. That's the plan top advance the police state

Go spend 5 minutes on TikTok and you’ll find countless videos of people showing their EBT shopping hauls and people in grocery stores showing what happens to carts of food when people can’t pay. It’s almost all ultra processed garbage. They should really be limited to fruit, veg, meat, dairy, and pantry staples like flour and cornstarch. I don’t need to buy anyone 25 frozen pizzas and 5 bags of Doritos just to pay for those healthcare bills in 10 years.

I would expect grocers to riot...
