There’s a lot of “hot takes” going around about how we could fix SNAP by only allowing healthy food & introducing stricter work requirements.
Here’s my hot take.
Make those in government rely on SNAP and Medicaid for one month.
Just 30 days.
Then see if they keep blaming the poor.

“High risk pools” are groups where insurance companies put those with preexisting conditions. Don’t let them hide the ball.
General Motors is axing nearly 1,700 jobs across Michigan and Ohio, gutting its EV and battery operations just months after boasting record profits and raising its outlook — a move that perfectly captures the moral bankruptcy of corporate America’s current layoff spree.
Hey all. Where I work is a public building, and we have a food pantry. I am buying $100 worth of groceries this week for the pantry and will be doing so regularly until things improve. If you can afford it, please find a pantry near you and give some staples? Thank you! #FoodPantry

I’m so sick of the economic issues are more important than social issues people. 44% of the US is non-white, 30% are white women. We’re all included in “DEI,” a group they’re trying to kick out of the job market. It’s hilarious that anyone thinks they can have an economy without us.
People with disabilities that require special diets will struggle to feed themselves at food banks.
Those with illnesses that make standing in long lines difficult will struggle to access food banks.
Parents of kids with AFRID, autism or other food issues will struggle.
What can we do to help?
