I have difficulty finding the wording in the Constitution that authorizes food stamps.

Democrats and Republicans on the House Agriculture Committee sparred over food aid on Thursday at the markup of the chamber’s version of the $1.5 trillion omnibus farm bill.


These are payments to not riot. Will it work?

We paid tribute to the Barbery Pirates.............for awhile.

The way I figure it, the $34 million in waste, fraud and abuse EVERY DAY is a small price to pay for being able to provide soda, chips, beef jerky and fast food to the deserving poor. /s

$1.5 Trillion

Country has maybe 20 years left.

The debt mathematically can’t be paid. Impossible

But dozens of outside experts disagree.

What makes them experts is they agree with the Democrats.

This SNAP EBT money is nothing but big bucks to grocery stores that charge double plus the price of some smaller stores. People on welfare dont look at price. I shop around and can find a ribeye stake for 4.99 sometimes. At bigger stores they are 12.99+ That goes for most meats. Its corporate welfare. It barley trickles down to the farmer. But the big meat packers love it too.
