    Yikes. Straw man much?

    im made out of meat im not sure what youre implying

    The purpose of food stamps isn’t the pleasure someone gets out of eating a candybar and redbull. The purpose is nutrition and food for those who can’t afford it.

    the purpose of food stamps is to steal money from hard working americans and give it to minorities

    Implying that I think poor people shouldn’t enjoy anything is ridiculous. Dumb comments are dumb.

    i didnt imply anything i dont know where you got that from

    I mean shit, I’m as left progressive as it gets. Id support and additional “pleasure joy” food stamp specifically earmarked for fun candy and treats and shit. Just supplemental to the real food nutritious one. I dunno. While we’re at it, make the billionaires pay for it.

    sorry i thought you were a patriot but i guess a broken clock is right twice a day

    Your way is “here’s money for food because you cant afford it, you can spend it all on skittles if that makes you happy”.

    please dont put quotes in my mouth

      These people literally think we’re broke when in reality, if we cut our defense budget by like, 25%, we could probably give candy to the entire fucking nation (I did not do the math).

      But it’s absurd. Let people enjoy their fucking rations, Jesus Christ. Nobody wants to be on food stamps.
