Republican SNAP Proposals Could Take Food Away From Millions of Low-Income Individuals and Families

[Toddsterpatriot]

That's how it's going to be here in America. The kings and queens "owned property" and had subjects, and notice, there aren't too many of them around anymore. Like I said, the only property that should exist is personal, public, and productive co-op, other than that, it should be illegal. Now thanks to advanced automation and artificial intelligence, we're flying fast into socialism. We're entering it at MACH 10, hypersonic speed. We'll see who gets the last laugh.

That's how it's going to be here in America.

I have a circular file where you can keep it safe.

“Prominent Republican lawmakers and conservative think tanks have proposed cuts and other harmful policy changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) that could gain traction in Congress this year. These changes would cut food assistance across the U.S., making it harder for millions of people to buy the groceries they need to eat a healthy diet.”

Why are able-bodied people without dependents on subsidies? I’m not even sure why having dependents is an issue. Most people with kids work everyday. Yet it’s a big “mystery” why there are different outcomes for some people in this country.

Did we cut off all the illegals
Make sure we cut off all the illegals first and then you can reassess Americans who are accepting food stamps without cutting them off

Historically, every major technological shift, from the first assembly lines to the introduction of ATMs, rearranged jobs rather than simply obliterating them. This time is different because AI doesn’t just automate tasks, it learns and adapts on its own. Whether it’s assembly lines replaced by robots or back-office roles absorbed by software, entire professions risk vanishing at a speed we’ve never seen. Your beloved billionaire masters admit to this:

UBI:

​

Companies won’t ignore the cost savings, and a workforce that can’t retool fast enough will be left behind, no matter how many times we hear that “new technologies create new jobs.” That's simply not true. Capitalists need to compete with each other and when human labor is replaced with intelligent automation, that's the beginning of the end of capitalism.

We’re already watching it unfold. In Germany, with automated factories that run 24/7 with minimal human involvement, currently replacing over a quarter million workers, in companies like BMW and Volkswagon. AI is creeping into coding, bookkeeping, and even creative work, churning out designs and text that once kept human teams of literally, hundreds or even thousands of people employed in many companies, and busy. Sure, a handful of new roles might open up, but the net effect of AI and automation is poised to gut entire sectors, especially under the relentless drive to minimize labor costs and maximize profits.

In a capitalist system, gains from automation enrich those at the top while workers are cast aside. That’s exactly why we need a socialist framework, one where productivity gains, benefit everyone instead of just boosting corporate short-term profits. If human labor becomes obsolete for most tasks, we have two choices: either watch inequality soar as owners monopolize the spoils, or organize an economy that prizes collective well-being over private accumulation. The tools of production are evolving; it’s time our social and economic structures evolve too. This will happen sooner than you think and Trump's administration, believe it or not, is going to hasten socialism's rise, rather than delay or stop it.

Wrong

You keep trying to say this shit over and over but you are simply ignorant and out of touch

AI and advanced automation will enruere the permanenbt and final demise of collectivism especially socialism

Igt will garuntee the final and permanent elevation of capitalism

You really suck at reading for comprehension.

You really suck, period.

Get a job in a coop. Wages and standard of living are rewards for making yourself more valuable. People who create businesses deserve the fruits of their labors. An unskilled worker in a successful business has no right to any say in how that business operates. If a person wants that they should start their own business or coop---not whine that "Its not fair" Didn't your parents tell you that the world is not fair?

One doesn't need to grow one's business by hiring. Do the work yourself. Stay individual. No need to hire others.

Today's employers frequently complain about today's youth and work ethic. That's a complete lie. The other lie is "nobody wants to work anymore". People have never worked harder or produced more than today's young american workers.

You haven't been in the work force for at least 30 years. How would you know?

billionaires hoard wealth produced by others.

I dont think thats true

Billionaires do not stuff dollars inside their mattresses

They invest the wealth where it will earn the most return

For themselves. The money is produced by human labor (their employees/exploitees). No one in society should have that much power. It's dangerous. Billionaires as a socioeconomic class, shouldn't exist.

All the money billionaires make goes back into the economy

There is no hoarding

Great response!

Good example would be Musks use of Tesla profits to create Space X, Starlink, and X.

My observation skills.

 

[Concerned American]

My observation skills.

If you're aren't in the workforce, you have no idea. I've only been out for eleven years and there have been so many changes since I left that I would be lost if I was to return. When my kids talk about it, I just shake my head.

You never said, of all the revenue Walmart had last year, how much did they hoard
from the low-skilled cashiers and shelf stockers?

Republicans want everyone to starve to death!

My wife's company fired employees because they never showed up to work whenever there was a major sporting event or holiday weekend when they would normally work. Those people worked in a call center and no workforce dramatically increase call wait times.

Once again you prove youself out of touch with reality.
