Millions could lose access to food stamps under Trump proposal, study finds

[pknopp]

The poor fell further behind under Obama also.

We had an actual recession not the "Best of Tax Cut Economics times."

Which doesn't excuse crushing the poor.

/—-/ No one is crushing the poor you nimrod. Trump’s economy is reducing the UE to historic levels. If you want a job you can find one.

Low paying jobs. Wall Street gets billions, the poor get low paying service jobs.

/—-/ The poor get many types of jobs. They can train for better ones. And Wall Street doesn’t get billions. People, Unions and corporations invest billions in Wall Street. You big dope.

No, people do not invest billions. People invest a few hundred here and there.

Have you ever heard of working hard and bettering yourself to move up the ladder? Even Walmart has management training programs for free. Store Managers with Walmart can make over a $100 grand a year. Opportunity is there for those willing.

That will work for the single employee. That will not work for the other 60.

/—-/ What??? That makes no sense even by your low standards.

Where there are already hundreds of people at those retailers doing the same thing. Do you really not think that Target doesn't have a management program? So you have thousands of people working at Wal-Mart and Target and a very limited number of management jobs.

Millions could lose access to food stamps under Trump proposal, study finds

Millions of Americans face losing access to food assistance under proposed rule changes by the Trump administration, a new analysis has found.

The changes, if they had been instituted last year, would have resulted in 3.7 million fewer people and 2.1m fewer households receiving the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as Snap or food stamps, during an average month, according to the study.

The altered rules would also reduce benefits received by many people, with 2.2m households set to have their average monthly assistance cut by $127. Nearly one million students would lose access to free or discounted lunches.

The poor are an easy target for Cons. Typical bonehead politics.

And useful fodder for the Democrats. You have to give a damn about the people more than taking a swipe at a party. Trump will leave at some point.

This is where the fight needs to be.

If you take your normal everyday conservatives/liberals that are active in the community in regular everyday life in regular everyday cities and towns they are going to know who the hell is disabled, mentally ill, limited etc. They aren't going to be ok with cutting SNAP. They aren't going to be ok with cutting free or discounted lunches for children. They are already aware that there are kids that are putting half their lunch in pockets on Friday so they have something to eat on the weekend. Many of them are involved in their local food pantries and have watched people that were at one time donating become people in need. If you work in any way, shape or form with any of these people then the first thing you realize is nobody in their right mind is thinking so and so is a Republican/Democrat/Christian/Atheist/conservative/liberal. Nobody has time for that nonsense.

Except that it is only conservative politicians who take from poor folk and give to the rich. That is the essence of conservatism wherever you pay your taxes.

No. Would you like the opportunity to try that again or would you prefer to be labeled as disingenuous?

No, its the truth. Conservatives are Robin Hoods in reverse. Why would you deny that ?

Not exactly.....Conservatives want everyone to be working and paying their fair share...….while Liberal/Dem/Left prefer to keep everyone on the Government dole.

I want to see trump and his offspring work for a change. They're not a good example to set for those without jobs.

Sure....those making $12.00 an hour have to pay taxes......

I will also note that Amazon gets millions from the government every year also.....pay for that themselves? No way.

 

[airplanemechanic]

There are currently 2 million more jobs than people looking for work. Anyone still on food stamps is a lazy mother fucker. Let them starve.

I will not infringe on their right to be lazy and starve. Food stamps have to go. The Age of Obama is over.
