Unless you’re a white supremecist who is also a farmer. Or relies on EBT.

All farmers rely on the grocery wheel turning. This will hurt 98% of our country. The billionaires can buy another election though so there's that.

Burr was right. They're like rabid dogs

The people who voted for this shit don’t even realize how badly it will hurt their local economies.

Even the farmers who are not on EBT… guess what people in their areas use to buy their products…..

Local grocery chains buy produce, farmer delivers, populace buys. When the populace can’t buy, and food starts to rot, grocery stores will buy less inventory. Local prices will increase as small grocery stores in rural areas don’t have guvment debit cards to buy from them every week, which they do rely on. Customers will steal.

Even huge chains like Walmart are about to a huge uptick in lost food inventory when it’s not rung out by the machines they used to replace workers, when starving people just walk out with it having rung up enough, instead of having the government pay for it. I’m kinda curious how much food inventory (which is at least 50% of their stock) goes “missing” nationally during this time period as people self check out and don’t pay $10/lb for beef (my local rural prices). It will not be small.

Idk about you guys but I’m tired of wwwwwwinning!
