Goddamn.. I don't want to hear another fricking thing about needing to do more for poor people. It appears handouts do not work by any stretch of the imagination.

Do you want to hear the TRUTH?


Food Stamps are more about being a corporate subsidy than feeding the poor.

JP Morgan Chase and other banks make Millions every year off issuing EBT Cards.


Wal Mart, McDonalds, Taco Bell, Circle K etc have their labor subsidized because they can pay non-livable wages and have SNAP, Medicaid, Section 8, EBT and other programs fill in the gap.


Many have said "why don't the go back to commodities" or place limits on food types. RJR Nabisco, Frito Lay, Coca Cola, Tyson and other companies would raise h---.


Verizon, T-Mobile, Directv and other companies benefit bc snap benefits free up money for the public to buy their products.
