” an optional food stamp package that would only be for unprocessed food (vegetables, whole grains, seeds and nuts, and raw meat foul and fish), plus a modest amount for soap . . . “
Yeah — I think you actually meant something like “fowl” instead of “foul”? Anyway that’s a great idea; only I wouldn’t say “optional” - should be mandatory. . . . Isn’t it something like 45 million people now on food stamps?
I would like mandatory too, but you know darned well that the manufacturers of processed foods would lobby agaianst it like crazy. While I love to dream, I like to propose ideas that might have some possibility of actually being used.
