Donald wants to people to spend food stamps on junk food

[Stormy Daniels]

Canned spray cheese would be considered a "staple" food, according to new policies proposed by the Trump administration. Lowering the the standards for what constitutes a "staple" food will only serve to open the door to businesses to begin accepting food stamps payments despite offering little to no nutritious food items. Which means that it will be easier for food stamps recipients to waste their allowances on junk food.

Once again, Donald betrays the values of Republicans and conservatives.

Trump proposal would allow spray cheese to count as a staple for food stamps

No one has to tell the freeloaders that. They do it already.

Just go to a 7-11 and watch what they buy with their food stamps.

Waste of hard earned tax payer money.

That's my whole point. There is no reason 7-11 and other convenience stores should be permitted to accept food stamps.

I agree. The Govt. should have a list of things you can buy with food stamps. And it should be meat, milk, eggs and vegetables. and that's it.

Well, I think that's a bit too restrictive. Pasta, rice, bread, flour, etc?

ROFLMFAO

YOU CAN ALREADY USE FOOD STAMPS FOR THAT

Yes, you can. But that is not the issue here. Or, more accurately, that is only a complication.

In order to be able to accept food stamps, a business must provide three staple foods in a handful of categories. So your local grocery store can meet the requirements for the dairy category by offering milk, yogurt, and cottage cheese. But these changes to what qualifies as a staple food reduce the standards to practically being formalities, opening the door for convenience stores to begin accepting food stamps even though the closest thing to a nutritious food item on their shelves are fig newtons. This means that even more taxpayer money will be wasted paying for food stamp funded junk foods.

You don't really care about this.

All you care about is hating Trump.

and that's my point. both sides can be so god damned petty that any nugget will do to show HEY HATE! as if ANYONE on the OTHER side will go GOD DAMN??? SPRAY CHEESE???

FUCK IT - HE'S GOT TO GO!!!!

when EVERYTHING is a reason to hate then none of your reasons to hate are valid. EITHER SIDE. we have a lot of emotions we can control - which one will grow and show itself the most? the one we feed the most. so if you're out there looking to hate, you'll find a reason.

even if in something as stupid as spray cheese.

The only one talking about hating Donald is you two clowns. I'm trying to have a discussion about real, actual policy. Have you become so jaded that you've forgotten to have a discussion about policy that doesn't revolve around either hating nor worshiping the President? Please, stay on topic. What are your thoughts about this new policy that would allow convenience stores to accept food stamps even though they sell nothing but junk food? Because personally, I think it's something that Democrats and Republicans should be able to easily achieve some bipartisan unity over opposing.

you're pissed off at canned cheese for gods sake.

NO ONE IN THE HISTORY OF MAN OR WOMAN KIND HAS EVER HAD A SERIOUS CONVERSATION ON CANNED FUCKING CHEESE.

and maybe we could get to a bipartisan level if we didn't have DONALDS WANTS PEOPLE TO EAT CANNED CHEESE to start off these intellectual debates you say you're after. this is a hit-n-run to make you feel better about your hate. nothing more.

fucking canned cheese shit. ask them on the border if we can ever resolve our immigration issues by learning to cooperate on canned cheese and see how high they put this topic up there.

its like you get up in the morning with an agenda of "what can i hate on "donald" for today? OH LOOK!!! CANNED CHEESE FOR THE POOR! HOW AWFUL!!!! now onto the forums i go to tell everyone of this major crime!!!"

 

[SandSquid]

That's my whole point. There is no reason 7-11 and other convenience stores should be permitted to accept food stamps.

Well not through SNAP. I personally think that money should be used for actual healthy foods used to keep a person alive and healthy, not giving in to lobbyists pushing cheese whiz to be a staple food that people on government support can spend tax money on.

But that's me. I guess some believe we should expand our socialist programs.

You can use EBT(link, Chicago)
at the mexican ice cream shop by my house

All the convenience stores and gas stations
take EBT by me

People use their link card to buy Slurpies
candy and soda at 7*11 over here

They can use their link to buy Easter Baskets

My new girlfriend told me when she used to work at a 7/11 they couldn't sell hot food for EBT, but if someone bought a frozen pizza she would heat it up for them..


I never got why they couldn't buy hot food say chicken at the grocery store or at McDonald's or some place

I see no reason for food stamp to be spent on McDonalds.

/——-/ They can’t. McDonalds would be prepared food and is not allowed. What Can SNAP Buy? | USDA-FNS

No shit Sherlock but why can't they?


What is the reason?

Whatever. Lording it over people who need help is kinda shitty. If we're going to give them financial support, we should allow them their dignity, deciding how best to spend it themselves.

If you pay attention, I am not critiquing those who receive food stamps. I am objecting to convenience stores who don't even offfer real nutritious food items being allowed to accept food stamp payments.

Have you ever been to the hood? Tell us when you seen a major grocery store any where near them?

Because prepared food and convenience stores are places you spend high dollars for CONVENIENCE. Sure, it's nice you can get cheeze whiz and soda at 3AM there. It's nice you can get a big Mac made for you at McDonalds. But you are paying a premium for those services. Is that something we should be expanding socialist programs to cover?

Yes Lived in Miami. They were all over. What hood are you saying has no grocery stores?

 

[Wyatt earp]

Speaking of this topic is food stamps the same everywhere, just a few hundred a month?


If it is I wonder if poor people realize they are getting screwed over with local states minimum wage hikes? Speaking from experience food at the grocery store is way more expensive in high minimum wage states.

Nope. It's up to you if you want to expand SNAP from using socialism to provide necessary foods to the poor to convenience foods at a higher price.

Just saying I'm not for that. If you are that is your choice.

Hmm Chicago. Lets see.. Riverdale is usually listed as the worst area there. Hmm, Aldi, star groceries, Village groceries, Herman Foods, new store mart, Fairway foods all within a 10 block walk. And yes Walmart free delivery as well.


Well that one failed on ya. Try again?

Uhm because homeless people don't have a car? Not all cities are like Chicago that have public transportation 24 hours a day.
