[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The easiest way to bring down food inflation is to stop the monthly child tax credits and pull back expanded SNAP benefits. Less money chasing the same product means a lower price. I'm not sure the rural R voters would appreciate that though. [/quote] It may lower food prices, but low-income families will have less money to buy food, so how does that help them?[/quote] So which problem do you want to solve? Do you want to lower food prices or do you want to make sure families and children eat enough?[/quote] This is such a bizarre question. The price of food means nothing on its own, it’s all about how it compares to purchasing power. If people cannot afford to eat enough, then that is a problem. Making sure everyone has enough to eat should be the goal. Do you really think the answer should be to make food cheaper for wealthy people while the poor starve to death?[/quote]
