"The average SNAP (food stamp) benefit per person is estimated to be around $187 per month" according to google.

Just checked the Walmart website. Two pounds of frozen corn/peas/mixed veggies? $2.50. 5-6 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts? $12. A pound of ground beef? $5. 10 pounds of russet potatoes? $5. 18 large white eggs for $7, and a package of bacon for $5. A 3 pound bag of apples for $4. I even set my preferred store to one in NYC, just in case the prices were higher in the city.

There's literally no reason not to restrict food stamps to real food. Not only is it cheaper, but it's healthier, and it supports our nation's farmers.

wait.. theirs Walmarts in NYC? dude I thought it was mostly bodegas and maybe a target or something

"Brutal American"
That's fucking right. Our nation was born in blood and the grounds have been watered with it regularly since. Fear us, eurocucks, for we shall make your destiny manifest.

Those lawmakers ought to, but Coca Cola Co. et. al. have infinity money in congressional lobbying that speaks more loudly than you or I.

Coca-Cola themselves owns about 500 brands, with them having a marginal market share of soft drinks of around 46%. That's incredible.

I swear to God, it feels like these fuckers have more power than SCOTUS.

That's what happens when one court has a don't give a fuck liberal majority, and the other has a supposed conversative majority.

 

[Clyde Cash's Left Teste]

All your 'fluff' like candy, soft drinks, and yes, that means spices @The Last Stand comes out of your own pocket. Supplemental is literally in the name SNAP; it's not like you cannot get it if you're earning cash, and you're free to do with that cash whatever you want. And I don't care what you do with your money, but stop spending mine on Mountain Dew.

I also think we need to start promoting having home gardens

That sounds like shit bro. Are you a fucking beaner or something? You eatin BEANS instead of MEAT?

what's wrong with beans? meat is great do not get me wrong, beef is the best meat, chicken is 2nd, but beans are really good though.

Video title is Bernie Sanders: "Open borders? That's a Koch brothers proposal"

It's really funny to remember when border security was a left wing issue because it protected wages for the lowest income earners.

Well, I didn't expect this thread to turn out to be a gathering ground for hypochondriac hypothyroidic ASS MUNCHERS.

The food pyramid is honestly just a way to get you to eat more grains; keep in mind that as the "recommended" servings of grains has gone up, so has the rates of obesity.

It's all made up by the bread companies, but I don't care. I'm eatin dat bread.

[The musical Cats] was mocked into oblivion throughout the 90's to the point that kid's shows like Hey Arnold! made fun of it.

For reference:

 

[Noxe]

it's how to people USE EBT/SNAP against its intended purpose.

Right. If black people actually used EBT well nobody would care. I bet they don't even know you can buy vegetable plants to start your own garden on EBT

Border Czar Tom Homan on Navy Destroyer ships being deployed to the southern border:

"We will not stop until we have total operational control at the border."

As long as Tom Homan keeps delivering there is no reason for any administration to replace him. Love this guy.

Imagine if they were half as afraid of illiterate third world rapists as they are of having rights

 

[Jinn in the phone]

My family is working poor. Me and mine have never been on EBT, unemployment, housing assistance etc, not because thing haven't been lean, not because we didn't pay into those things and it's not because we don't think "starving the beast" is fruitful. It's because we are not. Fucking. Niggers.

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

_ an unhealthy America is billions for big pharma (tooth decay...weight gain, thyroid dysfunction, heart disease...renal disease etc)
-regulated food stamps mean less soda sold (soda is addictive sugar aspartame you name it over consumption create my first point)
_ an unhealthy population is a docile population.
You will eat the goy slop and be good money-making piggies.

“The Brutal American” sounds like the tightest shit ever. Was it supposed to be an insult? I like it.

 

[Penis Drager 2.0]

Obviously, I'm not going to sit here and say that "why, yes, the American tax payer should pay for Tyrone's candy bars and sugar water", but I think we need to have a bigger discussion about what we consider healthy.

This has been an ongoing discussion for years. And, frankly, it's not all that important.
I don't think anyone's arguing the government should be splitting hairs on what is and isn't healthy with regard to SNAP benefits. But "where you draw the line" is hardly important in the face of obvious exclusion criteria.

We already reject food stamps for alcohol. Just add soda to the list and be done with it. If something else is about to get put on the list, we can discuss the merits of that product's exclusion when that time comes.
