Had a neighbor a year ago, who would beg me to take her to a certain grocery store, where she could fill up her grocery cart with SNAP(food stamps)" and my reward was a half gallon of "Sunny D" fake orange juice.

Maybe beef prices will go down.

Won’t they just binge buy whenever the shutdown ends with their back pay?

Sounds like they’re going to have a nice surplus of goods and prices may need to go down without all that guaranteed government cheese money to buy their product. Damn those free market forces.

If US food companies are “bracing” for a drop in sales because food stamps are cut off, we have a big problem as a country. Food companies should not rely on government payments as part of their business model.

Food companies have powerful lobbies in DC to expand food stamps, including illegals.

No wonder food is so expensive,

We compete with the US government giving it away free to 54M people.

Less demand, junk food prices will drop.

So, kinda proof that government subsidies increase demand and thereby increase prices for those not receiving subsidies.

Well I suspect it won’t be doomsday as these two Yahoo losers are reporting. Tons of fraud in the program, people that aren’t going to go hungry that were gaming / robbing the system that they had no business being on. They won’t be on an rice and beans diet.
