[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am pro SNAP and funding SNAP through the shutdown. But I feel like the media, even “mainstream” media portrays the recipients in such an unflattering light or the stories don’t even make sense. I’m honestly surprised a lot of these people agree to be interviewed.

“ Buck, in Mississippi, is pregnant and expecting her ninth child in February. She and her husband both work — Buck is part-time at McDonald’s — and rely on SNAP funds to feed their kids.”

“Corbett was driven out of the workforce by debilitating back and joint pain, likely exacerbated by his job as a forklift driver. His 5-year-old son has nonverbal autism and requires constant care. His wife, Emily, recently lost her part-time job at a gas station, he said, leaving the family without their only source of income.”

You know what makes for fewer children who can't be cared for? Easy, cheap access to birth control. You know what's been cut, dismantled, and reduced through recent GOP policies? You got it. [/quote]

Yeah. That’s why she’s having a 9th kid. Because she can’t find out how to get free birth control or doesn’t know how babies are made. [/quote]

If you want to have a real, marked effect on the problem, you provide the answer that actually works overall.

I don't believe you really care about this at all. You just enjoy punching down. [/quote]

You honestly think she’d had a 9th if she couldn’t feed the previous 8? We pay her to feed them all, and we’ll pay to feed this one too. We make it easy. Why is it all of a sudden a crisis how to feed her kids? Oh because we’ve been doing it for her since they were born. [/quote]

If you provide cheap and easy access to reliable birth control, the number of children born goes down. That was true in Colorado during the early studies, and it is true thereafter.

And yet this Republican administration has been making moves that close free health clinics, close rural hospitals, and limit or end access to Planned Parenthood. Why is that?[/quote]

Maybe because people can avoid pregnancy if they want to by buying their own birth control or by exercising some self-restraint, instead of expecting the government to moderate their procreative urges for them or by only using free or low-cost birth control instead of making it their own personal priority even if it costs a little more?

This requires education.

Which party doesn’t want sex education in schools?

Which party PREFERS and uneducated populace?

What it actually required long ago was president LBJ sending the signal to men to walk out on their partner and the state will take over and provide. Another one of LBJ's hairbrained "successes" as part of the Democrat's "Great Society". This crap has been building for decades. Now the budgets are  breaking. Does anyone know the figures for children raised by one parent vs. children raised by two in the U.S.? Take a guess.[/quote]

You have a problem with LBJ?

You are a gullible old fart, to fall for anything this POS Trump is putting out.[/quote]
