Why are some republicans so against people using snap?

My nana lives by herself and gets herself a whole chicken for 7.99 at Whole Foods using snap - that whole chicken lasts her 3-4 days worth of food and she also will get herself a cake from the frozen isle once in a while for her birthday -

-Frozen Lasagna
Mac and Cheese
Meatloaf frozen dinner
Avocado Tuna Maki
Whole Chicken roasted
-Whole Pizza (365)
Bananas
Peanut Butter
Milk
Yogurt Bowls
Oatmeal
Bagels

What’s so wrong with that? Shes frugal as she can be on snap!

She's the exception, not the rule.

Also, there are some (myself included) that believe its unconstitutional.

Why doesn't you nana work? Is she lazy? Was she not responsible enough to save for retirement?

Did she marry some irresponsible chump who failed to take care of her in retirement?

Why should she get any please off the tax payers dime? If it was her money it's her choice but since we're paying to feed her she should be at least a little miserable or she might take advantage of someone.

Once in a while? Does she have more than one birthday a year? If not, I’m sure your Nana can find the cash to pay for a birthday cake once a year. Or, better yet, since you want to pretend like you care so much about her, why don’t you buy it for her?

Nobody cares about Granny and her SNAP and she likely won’t be impacted. I have personally seen a huge morbidly lady with two shopping carts full of absolute crap whip out her EBT card. My thought was dear lord I am paying for her food, her healthcare that diet impacts greatly and likely her children same issues since she isn’t teaching them better.

It would be cheaper if she bought ingredients and actually made something rather than heating up a prepared meal

Your nana has birthdays every once in a while? What species is she to have more than one birthday per year?

Granny cannot remember her birthday.

But she is frugal

Alter douche says so.

Tell Nana to shop at a cheaper store and she can buy more.

Good question.

Why would cutting sweets and expensive foods like steak from SNAP make her "a little miserable"?

I bet those some Republicans are very small number.

I bet the vast majority of Republicans aren't against it but they would prefer that it be limited to certain purchases and not be wasteful of taxpayer money.

As small a number as alter tool's post count.

Limiting choice and removing options she might like would most likely be frustrating at certain point. I know if I had a craving for something and couldn't get it it would frustrate me or "make me a little miserable" to not be able to achieve it. Maybe it will motivate granny to contribute though

Most of your troll post is too ridiculous to respond to but the placing of a Whole Foods brand in there with the pizza was subtle.

Why does nana need Snap benefits? Is she supporting you on her Social Security?

Considering it's blatantly unconstitutional, I think the answer is easy.

Tell her to go to wal mart or someplace cheaper than Whole Foods and maybe get more for her (other people’s) money. Maybe she can get some little debra zebra cakes that would be cheaper than a birthday cake that her family won’t buy for her to celebrate her birthday. Just some ideas to help dear old granny.
