It’s not the same thing as control. Foodstamps are not a right, it’s a government program that is poorly run. Why should the taxpayers be burdened to pay for people’s junk food habits?
If the person who is receiving food stamps wants to purchase non nutritious foodstuff then they have the right to pay out of their own pockets.
Foodstamps should be set up like the WIC voucher system where it is limited to nutritional foods only. The point is to provide essential nutrition to maintain health.

It is what is in place NOW. Yes, it is poorly run. It is not up to ME or YOU to DICTATE what their DIET should be while on this program. If you would like these entitlement programs removed, then VOTE OUT THE SOBS that want more people dependent on them! Make it an issue! If they want to buy JUNK FOOD, so be it!
“If the person who is receiving food stamps wants to purchase non nutritious foodstuff then they have the right to pay out of their own pockets.”
Again, it is not up to YOU or ME to tell them what they can eat. It’s shocking to see someone want to DICTATE another persons diet.

I am not fmailiar with WIC so I can’t comment on that.
Could you tell me more about that?
What is the difference between WIC and the food stamp program?
