EBT/SNAP should allow you too purchase mostly fruits, vegetables, canned goods (vegetables/fruit, pickles, etc), dry goods (Rice, Flour, Beans), milk, and maybe ration out a four to five pound chicken every two weeks and a cut of beef every month (chuck roast and the like). Maybe alternate the chicken with ground beef every other month and the beef cut with turkey.

Again, pressure cookers and slow cookers would go a long way to getting these people to eat healthy, but only if we force them too.

There's certainly a spot between let them starve and buy them infinite soda.
My brother and I were talking about this a while back, and we basically came up with a system that involved mandatory enrollment in a State-funded Home Economics program. There's room for debate over whether it should be funded/operated at the Federal or State level, but we thought there were more benefits to letting each State individually run its own thing.

The idea in a nutshell is to make continued EBT/SNAP/etc enrollment be contingent on completion of continuing education in the fundamentals of Home Ec. Recipients would be required to demonstrate a level of proficiency with basic cooking techniques and kitchen tools, starting with the basics of nutrition and food safety. You could even add a meritocratic element, building in extra credit or incentives for the best-performing students. Incentives can't be monetary, though - extra coupons for X ingredient(s) to whomever demonstrates that they're best qualified to make good food with it.

Get it working in one or two States as a test case, and you can build it out from there. I want interstate cooking competitions and all that shit. Someone get Bobby Kennedy on this.
 
Food stamps don't work in many homes. Mum just trades them for cash at 50c on the dollar. The food parcels that the government sends are far more effective.
I don't give a fuck about the broke bitch and her 'freedom of choice'. Kids need food, the government should provide the food. Not stamps in the hope that their
mother who is already proven to be improvident is suddenly going to make the right choice.

That silver tub of peanut butter has saved lives.
 
You're right. If someone is unable to get a job that can push them above the poverty line, they should be tortured until they kill themselves.

On a totally unrelated note, did you know that more than 60% of employees at Walmart, the largest private employer on earth, are on food stamps?
What if instead of taking money from them to give to people who dont work at all we let them keep more of their paycheck...

It's not that niggers, beaners, and white trash don't know how to cook. They're just lazy, fat fucks.
 
Tobacco chads to sodacels: "first time?"
Cigar patricians to cigarette plebeians: "if only you knew how bad things really are."
CNN is forced to admit that 63% of Americans favor deporting criminal illegal aliens.

“That’s a pretty high number…”

Gotta give CNN credit for even publishing that.
I got a weird ad on twitter for something called the Zionist Congress.

Anyone know what the fuck this is?
It's a pro-Zionism group dating back to the end of the 1800's. It's been around a while.

While it's known that walmart is beyond scummy and does push its own employees into being dependent on purchasing from their own store, every single person in this thread acting like it's 'torture' to eat cheap gives me the impression they never once had to do so. They seem to have this idea in their heads that what they get to have is some Oliver Twist colorless gruel, when in reality with a few dollars on some simple greens and meats you can make damn near anything you please. I say this as somebody who's had to live on unemployment and make every cent count.
 
Of course she was born a hundred years ago. Can you fuck off with this gimmick and just hit up a retirement home already if you're that hard up? You might as well be a furry or a discord tranny where I can't get through a single post of yours without being reminded that, yes, you want to fuck grandmas.
I will defend Mister Stand's honor here: he wants to fuck grandmas as they were in their prime, which is still oddly specific, but not as weird as it's made out, dammit! If any one of us had one chance, or one opportunity to smash Audrey Hepburn circa Breakfast at Tiffany's we would capture it and not let it slip.

My argument is that if my dad gives me a twenty to grab lunch and then I spend it on weed, he'd be rightfully pissed off.
When someone gives you money for a specific purpose, like food, I count it as bad if you spend that on bullshit and then complain that you don't get enough free shit.

Johnny Bench called.

Keep in mind that the post was in response to someone saying that EBT should be subsistence rations, and "it should be an absolute miserable experience."

Apparently, a fatwa has been issued to MAGA shill accounts on behalf of BIG SODA to post in favor of keeping soda in food stamps—for seemingly no reason. Some pretty big accounts are involved (and also Ian Miles Cheong, too), and allegedly, they're paying up to $1,000 per shill

In my estimation, Riley “Total Tranny Death”Gaines’ stock has mooned.

The most fucked about this is how easily it is discerned these arent their words, because they arent actually worried about "government overreach" in most issues. Especially with RFK shilling.
