The Trump administration said Monday it would commit to partially funding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program for the duration of November, but only had emergency funds available to cover “50% of eligible households’ current allotments,” meaning the estimated 42 million Americans who rely on a SNAP-backed food stamp program will see reduced benefits this month.

You can provide them only low-cost basics. Where do you think the phrase “government cheese” came from?
I know there are some who do need assistance through no fault of their own, but I think much is abused. It disgusts me.
Properly conceived and run government programs should increase the exposure and participation into the mainstream of economic and cultural life — and not merely create an increasing permanent underclass of “disabled” and incompetent ghetto culture that exists just for the exploitation of the socialist and Democratic parties to exploit in their protests and riots.

So SNAP is in many cases another factor driving up food price inflation.
Garbage truck guys will tell you they get much more food waste in Section 8 and EBT areas.
Get the amateur Dipstick Court jugheads to pick up the difference. They are the ahos worried about get the SNAPPER SLOBS and Miggies feed.

THERE IS NO CONNECTION BETWEEN FAMILIES GETTING FOOD STAMPS & THE MEALS KIDS GET AT SCHOOLS.
EVERY KID ON FOOD STAMPS THAT ALSO IS IN SCHOOL===DOUBLE DIPPING
Those are difficult to prepare and require a large clean-up effort.
I can’t see a ghettopatamus investing that kind of effort.
My point was that there are alternatives out there to SNAP. So this whole ting about kids going hungry is simply not true.
