Kentucky wants to ban junk food from SNAP (food stamps)

[Muhammed]

So... We're now on a sliding scale? You get out of it what you put into it? You have my attention... So government assistance should be metered by contribution? I think we may just be in agreement...

Nope. Just pointing out your tired old canard.

 

[fncceo]

The government should not ever dictate what the people eat.

Neither should the government pay for what people eat.

If you need to rely on your neighbor to feed you, you neighbor gets a say in what you eat.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

So free food for everyone comrade..?

What are you waiting for, sign up.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

**** you. It none of your ******* business what kind of food someone else eats.

You've been brainwashed by corrupt assholes. Drug tests will merely take money from the taxpayers and give it to corrupt politicians and their cronies. Your stupid idea would force poor disabled people who can barely walk to trek through all kinds of weather just to go take some drug test to make greedy scuzballs rich.

**** off.

It is 100% my business if I, and my countrymen, are paying for their food.
You keep saying no one has a right, but that doesn't make it true.
Your arguments here are baseless and weak, and full of temper tantrums (like above).
Grow up.

Soylent Green on special...

I see, so the millions that the Democrats ordered not to go to work, should just eat what the government says.

Eat the bugs, Klaus Schwab demands it!

Wash down the bugs with some Brawndo, it's got electrolytes.

Is it Tuesday already?

Soylent Green is Wednesday. Tuesday is tacos...

They wouldn’t be dictating what you can eat. Just what you can buy with taxpayer provided subsistence.

 

[Lesh]

So should flavored drinks with no sugar or seeetener be banned?

How about ice tea?

Are hot dogs healthy? Should they be banned?

How about bologna ( just bigger hot dogs)

How about sliced ham with all those nitrates?

You guys really want to pick winners and losers here huh?

what is or is not junk food is-----very vague. Even now one cannot buy LIQUOR or even HEALTH GIVING WINE.---<< the
staff of life (in the absence of nutritional vodka........

Give 'em unsweetened koolaid

How about ice tea?

I always drink it without sugar. Also comes unsweetened.

Try the uncured varieties, no nitrates.

How about sliced ham with all those nitrates?

Don't think ham is causing children to climb walls.

The people are infinitely more capable of choosing for themselves than the corrupt bureaucrats.

Why the **** do you care what they eat so much?

Do you hate them?

If taxpayers are providing your subsistence, we should be able to refuse to buy you junk food which makes you a bigger drag on the taxpayers by developing serious health issues.

Bullshit!

The government's nutrition advice causes very serious health issues already. I'm speaking as a professional nutritionist and physical trainer. I've trained champions and record breakers. I know what I'm talking about.

You sure do have a lot of faith in corrupt deep state bureaucrats.

Food industry lobbying.

Why they didn't want RFK

Food is food

And some of this shit should not be called food.

For instance, this is NOT food:

Coca-Cola's ingredients include carbonated water, high-fructose corn syrup or sucrose, caramel color, caffeine, phosphoric acid, and a secret mixture of flavoring oils known as "Merchandise 7X."

 

[buckeye]

How very NAZI of you to dictate what can be bought. Didn't you people go batshit crazy when the state of New York tried to limit sugar in soft drinks????

How very typical of you to get most of this wrong.

It was NYC and typical for the communist left, they forbid extra large soft drinks from being sold. It got overturned by a court who reminded NYC leftists that they hadn't succeeded in becoming Big Brother just quite yet.

Being the not very smart communist that you are, you fail to see the difference between what someone buys with their own hard earned money and what they are gifted.

So why don't they ban it for everybody.
