Robert F Kennedy Jr announced US Taxpayers are spending $72,900,000 PER DAY for soda and candy for people on EBT Food Stamps
That’s $26,608,500,000 per year just on CANDY AND SODA
RFK Jr “We spend $405 million a day on food stamps. That's what the taxpayer is spending. 10% is going to sugary drinks. Another 8% is going to candies. So we are poisoning 60% of our kids who are getting food stamps.”
“The poorest kids, the kids who can least afford to get sick, and we are poisoning them. We are deeming them diabetes, and then we're paying for it upfront with food stamps. We're paying for it again with Medicaid. the rest of his life”

Sorry for language!
100% juice is also sugary. And chocolate is good for you.
And big pharma is lovin it!! Along with Pepsi, Mars and Little Debbie
Something’s got to change
Well, chocolate that is about 80%+ pure cocoa, otherwise it os processed abd has tons of sugar.
It’s too bad Dems have an automatic knee jerk reaction to anyone connected to Trump because 10+ years ago they would be agreeing with RFK about kids eating too much junk food
Yes. HOORAY RFK Jr. Thank you, sir.
ALL people should be allowed to choose what to eat.
You can get juice without sugar.
Taxpayers shouldn’t be made to pay for their bad decision making.
They should limit what can be bought with such cards. Booze, cigarettes, snacks, and candy should be off limits. Indeed, doing so might cause some of them to get off their a$$ and get a job.
I agree. Only if they are paying for their own food and not the taxpayers.
I like his positions on EBT cards and vaccines but his personal life is a mess. His second wife allegedly committed suicide after his many violations of his marriage vows. He wouldn't let her family bury her and said he wanted her in the Kennedy plot. Then unbeknownst to the family a month later he had her dug up and moved to the far end of the cemetery.
His policies may be good but he is a dirty evil Kennedy.
True, and true.
Dark chocolate is better.
I like mine about 70%.
So we should replace RFK Jr with someone like Michael Pence?
“””It’s too bad Dems have an automatic knee jerk reaction to anyone connected to Trump because 10+ years ago they would be agreeing with RFK about kids eating too much junk food””
They constantly scream about him be completely unqualified because he has no medical background.
They forget the HHS Secretary for Biden was an Attorney General for California and the assistant Secretary was a fat guy who thought he was a woman.
I was just looking at the soft drinks on Amazon and sure enough, it says “SNAP EBT eligible” right under the Buy It Now button. It’s good that RFKJ is raising awareness about this.
Only if using your own money
