“Yet people on food stamps are, and should be encouraged to buy food in bulk. 20 pounds of potatoes, 20 pounds of dry beans, 20 pounds of rice, and importantly, food that is on seasonal sale.”
60 lbs of potatoes, beans, and rice takes up the entire back seat of the average car. You are thereby displacing no less than 2 people from their living quarters!!
While the above was in jest, these people do have storage problems, especially refrigerated storage. There are often multiple families living in one small dwelling. Most of my career food stamp queens don’t think that far ahead anyway.
I agree, but if the State could convince them to buy bulk surplus item, it would probably be to their benefit, and my teach them that it’s a good idea.
/yeah, I know. fat chance.
