Once upon a time, long, long ago, feeding the hungry was thought to be the proper province of the church.
Those days are long gone now, of course.
Where is free food (or free anything) mentioned in the constitution?
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. ~2 Thessalonians 3:10
Its immoral that people have to work so hard to fund your idiot government programs
20% of Americans are on food stamps.
1 in every 5 Americans will go “hungry” if food welfare is trimmed back to sanity?
Go play in the street, Payne.
Yeh...No more beer, drugs and going to the casino.
A lot of people that are WORKING can hardly afford their food. Why should they pay for someone too lazy to work?
Chris Christie ate all the food.
I had a renter with an EBT card. She drank beer and smoked continuously. (I had to paint the entire place and clean the ducts when she moved.) She spent all of her money on beer and cigarettes. When she moved out, in August, without telling me, she left over $100 worth of EBT top-of-the-line steaks in the unpowered fridge, but took all the beer. The new refrigerator was ruined.
Free food stops people from making choices like should I be drunk and nicotined all day or buy real food? (FYI, she’d had several publically funded throat cancer operations and was on numerous cancer treatments, but never even slowed down the smoking. So having to make that choice would have improved her life.)
What’s immoral is 20 million unemployed, 30 million or so underemployed, and a president happy about it.
I wonder if Payne criticizes the gov’t for no longer serving hot meals to the men overseas who are fighting so that he can open his stupid pie-hole
“But abortion isn’t immoral is it?”
Considering the size of some of the welfare sows in Newark NJ, the moral thing to do would be to reduce their caloric intake. We have the fattest poor people in the world, and they have a diabetes epidemic to boot.
Morality does not stem from the government purse.
How many of these hungry people would work for that food?
Just cleaning at the food bank or picking up trash on the side of the road.
I am not a mean person, I have no desire to see anyone hungry, but in todays society we have a group of people who expect handouts just because they are there.
From a baby murdering, same sex marriage, islam embracing demon from hell.

(But not as well as the EBT people, from what I have seen in their shopping carts!)
If Representative Payne had the choice between “letting the people go hungry” and firing the worthless and expensive administrators, he would let the people go hungry every time. He’s not fooling me.
