Maybe some of us normal people can afford steaks if the price goes down.

I hate this sorta nonsense. PPI is up, but it ain’t up nothing like CPI.... or profits. Corporate profits are up 50% from before covid.

That’s the big secret behind SNAP - it’s payoffs to big retailers laundered through a burgeoning underclass.

How many scoops of ice cream does it take to fill that cone?
And is it Trump's fault that only really large cones are available for JoeY?

Hmm, did you ever wonder if food retailer ever lobby for higher and more broadly distributed food stamps? I bet they never dictated stories to media stenographers.
Able bodied people need to pay for their own food.

It’s strange that our government is providing all these free food programs. Every place they open a school feeding program, the percent of students who are overweight and obese goes up dramatically. Why do they want fat kids? Obesity has more than 35 co-morbidities.
