At whatever level you need assistance. Don't like it, get a job.


But the anger is misplaced. SNAP isn't untouchable because either party gives a shite about poor people, its untouchable because CocaCola and WalMart spend a fortune to make it so.

So if you file for any welfare, unemployment, food stamps, any housing or healthcare subsidies you are banned from anything with sugar, or entertainment spending?

I'm curious to hash out who should be allowed to purchase a soda by your standards

I am a supermarket mgr. and I see the abuse and corruption. One guy came in celebrating that he just got his first EBT/Food Stamps. He got the normal $350.00. He bought $325.00 worth of candy, ice cream, cookies, pies, cakes, Deli food, pastries, donuts, and frozen sweets. He bought no meats, vegetables, produce. I see Diabetes coming for him. Many sell food to other people for 50% on the dollar to go back in for cigarettes and beer. Many return packages of [their] damaged meat to favorable cashiers for cash for cigarettes and beer.
