It is going to take thousands and thousands of “scrapes” like this—every day—hopefully for twelve years.

You don’t need a study, just go to Walmart and follow the carts with the most sugary drinks, chips, and Pop Tarts.

Btw the biggest ticket item today was President Trump’s decision to sell hundreds of federal buildings.

That is going to generate some serious cash.

So, a couple of guys or gals got $17 Million to do absolutely nothing? Swell.

Get the money back or put these two in prison to work it off.

Why should there be a study? Cut SNAP to Veggies, Fruits, some supplements and Proteins and call it a day.

*IF* they’re going to give assistance for food, it needs to be more like WIC, where it’s for certain food items, like milk, bread, eggs, cheese, PJ&J, chicken fruits and veggies, etc. NO desserts or snack foods allowed.

I was called a dictator on Truth today for suggesting that. We the payers apparently don’t have the authority to tell our “guests” what to eat when we’re buying the food.

Everybody on the planet thinks they have the absolute right to bleed us dry.

I wonder where they got that idea.

If you look at their contract record, you see this!

OF COURSE your contract will be cancelled if Trans = 0. What were those contractors thinking? What idiots.

SNAP is a also full of waste and abuse

I know entire departments of kids at Ivy League Universities who all get food stamps. It’s not even fraud. The just go to their local welfare office, claim they have limited income (they are students after all) and just sign up.

these are kids from rich families who go to work for JP Morgan and Google when they graduate.....

Okay, awesome!

She is pushing for it.

Halp, Bobby, halp!!

Selling those federal buildings may be a hard slog. There probably won’t be that much demand if federal workforce is downsized and lobbyists won’t have a need to congregate in the beltway to conduct their grift. Don’t see DC being the “draw” it once was if the center of power is moved to flyover locations of US.

If you pull up the GSA list only ten percent of the buildings are located in DC.

Wear it as a badge of honor.

Handouts from the government should come with strings attached.

Don’t like the strings?

Don’t take the handouts. Get a real job and earn you own money to buy what you want.
