*Program EBT cards to subsidize only fruits and veggies.*
Better yet make them tax-free.
I’d go as far as to give away free rice and beans at the local food banks. A complete protein they can walk to get to. Just a little bit at a time to make sure the stuff doesn’t end up at the flea marts and garage sales. Tell all Americans to check their weight before these changes take place. The MSM will be no help but the Donald was a democrat most of his life so he’ll appeal to them if it’s effective.
I was thinking of a negative federal sales tax on good, modest cost food.
good = minimally processed, no added sweetness/sodium/fat/oil; fat under 11%
modest cost = under $2/pound, under $3, doubled for meat
People of Michelle Obama’s way of thinking might in the future easily limit federal food subsidies to such food.
“free rice”
I see what happens when homeless people are given free stuff - it winds up scattered around town.
food items - 25 cents each
garments - $1 each
