I don't understand why the federal government doesn't do this. They have a list of approved items for the WIC program (before smart cash registers us checkout ladies had lists of what was included if we couldn't remember). Even sugary cereals are verboten under WIC. It seems crazy to allow emergency food programs to include junk food.
Wait--I just realized why. The junk food and soda manufacturers have powerful lobbies in D.C. THAT's why.
That's exactly why. Cut them off of junk food.
If they want soda, then they should have to purchase it with their own money.
They purchase a lot of things with their own money. I see it all the time in my grocery store. They have flowers, greeting cards, alcohol, gift cards, huge bags of dog food and multiple bags of cat litter. We are taking care of them, and they are taking care of their pets. At the register, the computer separates the food stamp bill from the cash bill. They pay for their food with the SNAP's card, and whip out a wad of cash for all the other items. A few times after they leave the checkout line, I've seen them stop at the head cashier line to buy lottery tickets.
you over-generalize-------ie---you are promoting a stereotype
What I'm stating are facts. The fact is a lot of people abuse programs like this because the government allows them to. I've seen this at work when I talk to people at different companies I delivered to, I see it at my grocery store, I see it all over the place.
I'm all for helping people that actually need help. My stereotype are the abusers of these programs, and your stereotype is that everybody using them actually has no alternative but to be on them.
yes----lots of people ABUSE the system-----but lots don't. It impossible to
know all abusers, all cocaine users, all criminals etc etc. I still like it
that if a poor kid has a decent parent or caregive-----he can EAT WELL.
Some of the entitlement business has nothing to do with NEED-----it is
done for VOTES (think nyc------free lunch and breakfast for ALL SCHOOL
CHILDREN -------to me IN THE FACE OF THE FOOD STAMP ENTITLEMENT---
that one is for one purpose------to wit VOTES)
CHICAGO (AP) — Having food stamps offers Richard Butler stability he’s rarely known in his 25 years. He was in state custody at age 2, spent his teen years at a Chicago boys’ home and jail for burglary, and has since struggled to find a permanent home.
The $194 deposited monthly on his benefits card buys fresh produce and meat.
“It means the world to me,” said Butler, who shares a one-bedroom apartment with two others. “We can go without a lot of things, like phones and music. We can’t go without eating.”
But that stability is being threatened for people like Butler, who are able-bodied, without dependents and between the ages 18 and 49. New Trump administration rules taking effect April 1 put hundreds of thousands of people in his situation at risk of losing their benefits. They hit particularly hard in places like Illinois, which also has been dealing with a separate, similar change in the nation's third-largest city.
From Hawaii to Pennsylvania, states are scrambling to blunt the impact, with roughly 700,000 people at risk of losing benefits unless they meet certain work, training or school requirements. They've filed a multi-state lawsuit, expanded publicly funded job training, developed pilot programs and doubled down efforts to reach vulnerable communities, including the homeless, rural residents and people of color.
States scramble to prepare ahead of food stamps rule change
Just a little something different from the 50 primary topics today.
For the last year or so, all we have seen are the leftists on this board protest Trump's spending. Well, Trump heard your pleas. Now he's cutting spending. This is not a new idea, it's been implemented in many of the Republican governed states, and seems to have been successful.
Now that Trump is cutting the budget to reduce the deficit, how many of you spending complainers approve of his idea? After all, the economy is doing well, so you can't complain that some people can't get a job. It won't hurt our elderly as the age limit is up to 49. It won't hurt the children because these standards only apply to those with no dependents. What can you object to?
This guy is unmarried and living with two others in a one deb apartment... He has little in life and you think he needs motivation by making him starve...
This guy didn't have a great time growing up.. Thing is you don't care, has he refused programs? are the programs any good?
Let's start, Why didn't Trump increase funding for public funding job training first, are you sure there is enough spaces?
He's a healthy 25 year old in an economy where there are more jobs than the people to fill them...but you want me to feel sorry for him because his free food is getting cut? Give me a break! Someone should have given this lazy piece of shit a kick in the ass a LONG time ago! Get off the couch. Get a job. Show up. Work hard. Get paid. Get a promotion. Get a raise. This isn't rocket science, Kiddies! It's the way it's worked since the beginning of time!
I think the tax cuts could cover poor people's food. And btw did you know Trump's going to cut aid to rural schools who try to prove poverty through school lunch access.CHICAGO (AP) — Having food stamps offers Richard Butler stability he’s rarely known in his 25 years.

When I was is age I had two or three jobs. The requirements that he claims will cut him off are not that stringent. What he told the reporter is that he can't work at least 20 hours a week, can't enroll in a trade school, and can't volunteer 20 hours a month. That's a lot of things for a 25 year old not to be able to do.
your stupid is fully noted.Betcha if trump and the republicans engineered more tax cuts to the extremely wealthy and corporations tomorrow, there wouldn't be any squeals or bitches from his working class base I'm guessing. The republican party, always comforting the comfortable and afflicting the afflicted.

I grew up on a dairy farm...we got up at 4 AM every day to milk cows and did that 365 days a year. When someone who's young and healthy tells me that they "can't" work I can only shake my head. My guess is that if you cut off the food stamps to this Bozo he's going to go right back stealing. Working is hard...stealing is easy. Taking handouts is even easier.

If he can't work that's different. But if that's the case, he's on disability and it pays enough to buy your own food. One of my tenants is on disability. He got like ten bucks a month in food stamps. When he started working part-time, they took that away.

This isn't rocket science, Kiddies! It's the way it's worked since the beginning of time!
you conclude TOO QUICKLY ------not enough evidence
What part of my "conclusion" was hasty? I'm sorry, Rosie but there are people out there with serious disabilities who get up and go to work every day. Why? Because they take pride in having a job and being self sufficient. This whiny little shit wants someone to feel sorry for him? Don't hold your breath...
you don't have ENOUGH data on this person to conclude that he can work---
believe it or not-------LONG AGO----I was a disability specialist.
If he can't work that's different. But if that's the case, he's on disability and it pays enough to buy your own food. One of my tenants is on disability. He got like ten bucks a month in food stamps. When he started working part-time, they took that away.
"disability" is for people who USED TO WORK-----not for people who did not work or worked very little. SSI is disabled people who never worked-----nope---
not enough to support anyone------he would have to have a grandma willing
to care for him---house him etc. It's a matter of how much the person gets
per month. ------SSI at about ??? $ 600 per month does not even rent a
room in a flop house

It all depends on what they give you. I find it unlikely that a 25 year old is disabled. If he was, I think this article (which seemed to be trying to draw sympathy) would have included that factor. Somebody I know took care of her disabled son since he was a young kid. They lived off of his disability check and I know he never worked a day in his life. He was bed ridden.
He passed away about two years ago, and the government cutoff the check he and his mother lived off of. She found herself in her early 60's with no work experience or SS account, and was forced to move in with her daughters family. I think in that situation, the government should have taken care of the mother since she saved the government hundreds of thousands of dollars by not dumping her son off to them.
I put myself through college working four nights a week bartending. I learned a skill. It paid more money than entry level no skill jobs! I did that when I was 18 years old. Do I expect a grown man to support himself? Yes...yes I do!He's a healthy 25 year old in an economy where there are more jobs than the people to fill them...but you want me to feel sorry for him because his free food is getting cut?

He was able enough to be a burglar. Amazing how he could do THAT...but he can't hold down a job for 20 hours a week!
you do not have enough information to make a reasonable assessment of
the guy's ability. You expect a grown man to support himself on 20
hours of unskilled work? -----I did that as a student-----and made $20 per week
