Good. They are making it clear who has lawyer money and does not need Food stamps.

The plaintiffs said the restrictions create confusion.
Nope. It is ther stupidity that confuses them on if I want to pay for they Twinkies and Cokes. I do not. Get a job, have your mama feed you, or starve.

There are a multitude of options.

I used to be upset by wasteful snap spending.
But compared to wasteful Pentagon spending is nothing.

The idea of not controlling either because you can’t control both is dumb.
Perfection is the enemy of good.

whatever amount is spent on junk food can be multiplied by 10,000% for medical bills later in life.

How much is spent on snap? How much was the aca co pays? Burn seem to help more people than the spending we see from the military.

A lot of people in the Pentagon “use it or lose it” thread tried to pretend that criticizing waste at the DoD means I must be defending SNAP abuse and therefore must be some 'libtard.' That’s lazy partisan bullshite.
Waste and abuse should be criticized wherever it happens. If people are gaming SNAP, that should be fixed. If agencies are blowing taxpayer money on end-of-year spending sprees to justify inflated budgets, that should be fixed too.
The difference is some people treat it like a team sport and only care about waste when it comes from the other side. I don’t. If it’s taxpayer money being wasted, it’s a problem regardless of which program or administration it happens under. Consistency shouldn’t be controversial.

Taking away what they've been taught is a way of life. Bottom feeders get angry when you take their freebies away!

Fight the fight to reduce wasteful military spending, but realizing that you can’t isn’t a reason to give up on what we can control.
The DoD wastes billions of dollars. That needs to be reined in too, but it is less likely to happen.

Why didn’t the article say who is funding this lawsuit. Because these people are on SNAP and it’s expensive to sue the government.

A million here, a billion there, and before long you’re talking about real money.

Imagine someone giving you money each month then telling you I’m gonna still give you the same amount each month but you can’t purchase some unhealthy food with it and you sue them.
It’s not your money!
Yup. There's no law saying they can't buy shitty food with their money. Just that they can't buy shitty food with mine.
