There should be NO FOOD STAMPS....only healthy FOOD GRUEL.
Food stamps should be replace with a program where each county provides a building with a bakery and food processing equipment inside. If you want any of it, you have to go bake the bread, or bag the beans, process and bottle milk, or make cheese and churn butter. Only basic food staples, fruits and vegetables would be provided. The truly disabled can get theirs delivered. A token system can be devised that is only redeemable at that facility. Bake 200 loaves of bread, or deliver food to the disabled, get tokens for other product. It should be a pain in the butt to be on Govfood. If the ACLU complains about the food choices, say “We don’t prevent them from having steak, junk food and soft drinks. They can have all of that they want by paying full price at the grocery store.”
Larry Niven’s “Protector” book described “dole yeast”, if you’re down and out, it keeps you fed, but you find work because no one wants to eat it for long.
