Coca-Cola makes $10 billion per year from Food Stamps

[Rawley]

You care about government spending. Not healthcare.

You seem to "know" what everyone else is thinking. How about you stick to speaking for yourself.

 

[Marener]

Why should they? They are given enough to survive, and there are no consequences to staying on the dole.

Because their quality of life would improve.

Your soft bigotry is showing.

Your self image isn’t consistent with your words and actions.

This has nothing to do with poor people health.

You see it all the time at homeless shelters.....Give them a meal and a place to crash and if they can get booze, drugs, and cigarettes and they are happy to remain homeless.

Ultra processed foods probably have a lot to do with it.

Certainly along with a healthcare system that fails the patient and pushes harmful drugs.

The healthcare system has been telling people to consume less ultra processed foods, but it can’t stop people from doing what they want.

Pointing out that many are comfortable being on the dole isn't bigotry, it's reality.

Pointing out that the system is designed to do so by the left as a giant make work program for government is also reality.

But you just said, low expectations is soft bigotry.

And you have low expectations for poor people.

Lol. Yeah like keeping fast food restaurants and liquor stores open during the COVID pysop, but closing gyms. Plus never telling people to exercise, get sunshine, take supplements, and eat clean. They did push the phony vax real hard. Even on children and babies.

QED

 

[Independent thinker]

I suspect the figure is overblown for clicks but why the heck are sugary drinks even allowed to be purchased with EBT/SNAP?

And then taxpayer funded Medicaid pays to fix the poor's cavities.....We pay the "poor" to get fat, then pay even more to give them free medical care for their chosen obesity.

Food stamps should change from default accept to default deny. It shouldn't be "you can buy anything except XYX." Move to "You can't buy anything except ABC. Then make food manufacturers apply to qualify their products.

Everything the .gov touches turns out to be a grift.

I don't know about the word subsidizing. That seems kind of strong. We are really subsidizing the poor, not Coca Cola. And, a lot of those poor are gaming the system.

 

[martybegan]

Low expectations in accepting they should stay that way.

They need to be shamed or helped into improving themselves.

Healthcare providers tell people to exercise and eat clean all the time. They can’t force people to do it.

Supplements are money grabs by fraudsters. Take them if you want, but it’s mostly just flushing money down the toilet.

 

[Mashmont]

I sometimes shop at a Kroger near a "food desert" and the poor's are pushing shopping carts stacked to the top with chips, sodas, microwaveable garbage of all shapes and sizes, hardly a vegetable to be seen anywhere.

Hardly a BMI under 30 to be seen anywhere as well.

Panera bread donates old bread to our church to be distributed to a homeless shelter The shelter gets first dibs, and they only want the pastries and white bread. The healthier whole wheat and rye and gourmet breads are left over, and our given to our parishioners for a donation. Somebody asked why we get the good stuff, but that's why. The poor people don't want it.

Except not during Covid. Just the vax.

You have low expectations in saying they don’t want to better their life. You show your hatred and disdain for people you think need to be shamed.

Yet again, you prove this isn’t about helping people but about satisfying your own personal emotional needs.

 

[Marener]

No, all the time. Healthcare providers always have pushed for healthy diets and physical exercise. But they can’t force people to do it.

Again, Michelle Obama was out there pushing for more exercise and was ridiculed.

How do you hate people you want to help?

The low expectations is in the left thinking it's OK for them to continue to live at a levels just enough to keep them alive and reasonably comfortable.

We have lots of poor and homeless because the billionaire class wants it this way. And since they control government, it is so.

 

[DonGlock26]

Yes. People on food stamps work.

They’re also poor, elderly and disabled.

I guess that means they should be deprived of anything you deem too enjoyable.

So you worship the nanny state?
