End foodstamps/ebt cards. Have post office deliver basic survival food. If someone wants more, they can work.
That’s actually not a bad idea. Cans of beans, veggies, fruit... bags of rice and more beans. Maybe potatoes.
That’s what hubby and I ate for seven years while we were paying off our debt.
I imagine we have warehouses full to the brim of MREs and similar foodstuffs. I know that Red Cross and Salvation Army had a civilian equivalent for us during Hurricane Katrina that wasn’t bad and had a water activated food heater within. I really don’t think we should be feeding people, but if we are going to do that, they shouldn’t be eating lobster, steak, twinkies and cake.
