SNAP needs to be reformed into something similar to the WIC program

Have meal plans for families and only let them buy certain items from the meal plan - fresh meats, fruits, veggies. Maybe canned goods, too.

It’ll cut down on people selling their food stamp cards and when the cards are no longer used - it’s obvious people didn’t need it, so cut out the program.

It was a John Barron tweet or an Eric Doughy tweet?

This kills me that most drive thru crawfish places take the La Purchase Card. Some loophole BS about it not being considered cooked to order because it sits in the ice chest.

Correct - if it’s not hot it can be bought

I know people are going to argue that they see hot crawfish bought all the time, but it is against the rules unless an emergency is declared. If you really see that much hot crawfish being bought call 1-888-524-3578 - it is something DCFS takes seriously.

How it should be done.

Instead, it is merely a subsidy for these companies.

It should focus on healthy and affordable food for families that are trying to make ends meet, with “healthy” being at least 80% of the calculation.

Barron had a thread with it that he deleted apparently.

right - gas stations shouldn’t be allowed to accept food stamps just because they have one loaf of moldy overpriced bread on their shelves

Costco and Sam’s shouldn’t be allowed either.

Talk of RFK/Trump doing this is what induced Coke to do this campaign.
