One of the reason why food prices have gone up is all the “free” money in the form of EBT being spent willy nilly by people that don’t really need the food. It is used as barter. So not only to taxpayers fund the EBT program we pay higher prices because we are in competition for the same food with the useless eaters.

Are you saying that without food stamps we’d have fewer people eating and so food prices would drop?
