I would love to here a liberal on here explain to me why it would be wrong to restrict what SNAP people can and cannot purchase.

The main arguments are:

1) healthy food is more expensive. It's not. I hate that bullshite argument. What they really mean is that Whole Foods is more expensive, which is a silly straw man.

2) it's robbing people of their dignity to tell them what food they can and cannot buy. I say "tough shite" when you are using other people's money.
