📣 IMPORTANT: If you're on an ACA plan and you expect to earn *slightly* over 400% of the Federal Poverty Level next year ($62,600 for 1 person/ $128,600 for a family of 4), there are PERFECTLY LEGAL WAYS of getting your MAGI income below that threshold in order to qualify for federal tax credits.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
