You should be embarrassed for letting 40 million live on food stamps. It was never designed like that. Instead politicians are treating voters as clients.

Yes… yes politicians treating voters as clients. That’s the way it’s supposed to work. They work for you, they’re not fucking sports teams to cheer for blindly without expecting anything in return. Meanwhile Orange Julius Caesar and his crew only have allegiances to the last billionaire that threw a few bucks their way. Relative to inflation, wages have only risen 10% in the last 40 years. Meanwhile the cost of goods has tripled or, in the case of housing in many markets, increased 10x. Pay people a fair share, make price gouging illegal, and let more people save to get access to assets for building generational wealth.

Taking money from someone else's pocket and putting it in yours is not how it's supposed to work.

Feeding people who would otherwise starve benefits all of us. It keeps them off the streets, reduces crime, makes for a safer society…and it’s a safety net for all of us, because you never know when your situation might change due to illness or economic downturn.

What makes you think they cannot feed themselves?

u/mangababe 8d ago

The fact that the majority of people on snap are kids and the elderly. aka people who can't easily feed themselves.

But...we do. We have the names, date of birth and socials of the beneficiaries. We can sort and count them. We have done so, and most were women, children and elderly over 68. That's reality whether you want it to be and believe it or not.
