You don’t think people batch cook from scratch and then eat the things they made? |
And weed, cigarettes, alcohol, dogs.. If food is a basic need, it should be the first thing people use their own money to buy. |
Yes. Please tell us more, Republicans, about how we should abolish SNAP. This is a winning political strategy for a party who made all its recent gains by attracting low-income voters. |
Truly, where are you all getting your data that this is what low income people spend their money on? You keep saying it as though it's fact. |
Shhh, let them keep going. They’re digging their own grave. |
Once again, for the back row: the Republican party prioritizes getting rid of SNAP, even though more than 2/3 of those dollars go to children, elderly, and the disabled. |
| PS: And each dollar spent translates into about $1.60 in the local economy, so you get more benefit than just feeding children, etc. |
Why do you think this is what people on snap look like?? Half of them are children. The rest are mostly elderly. Most are rural. |
Not to mention 70% of voters are in favor of the program. |
Psst.... They mean African American They still believe the tired trope of the Welfare Queen. Most SNAP are poor whites |
This will be just like the MD federal aid. They'll realize it's maga who will suffer. Heck, the mages on food stamps themselves don't realize they are on SNAP. Should be a fun surprise for them. |
"Consider, for example, Owsley County in Kentucky. The county is 96 percent white, and last year it cast 88 percent of its votes for Trump. Also, 37 percent of residents are on SNAP." |
You'll have to talk to the Dems GOP is not interested in continuing SNAP |
Prisons aren’t always near agriculture. Logistics aren’t your thing. |
So then how is it racist to want it cut? Can’t be both |
