Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:
$100 billion
Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:
$100 billion
One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

“According to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.”
“SNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.”

Does anyone have a calculator that would tell people what their premiums would be without the subsidies? I have seen examples of the huge increases, but I think it would be very effective for people to be able to put in their plan to find out what their own cost would be.
