.@CBSNews go to the store in a poor area. No healthy food. Spend some money making sure affordable, healthy food is even accessible.

what is in a store is what shoppers demand. It's up to the shoppers trend.

Healthy food goes bad quicker. Unhealthy food is easier for a lower income store owner to keep on the shelves longer.

While I think people shouldn't eat crap food, I don't think govt should limit choices like that. We don't need food police.

No. Forcing families to buy foods from the outdated, unhealthy Food Pyramid is govt. overreach.

this is a free country that doesn't seem so free anymore
-
Foodstamp program is not free. Actual humans work and pay for this. Tax payers pay, tax payers should control
-
Most food stamp recipients must work a minimum of 20 hours per week. They are tax payers too.
-
You know that is not true..anyone working 20 hours or less gets more of a "refund" than they pay in
-
actually they don't we design these programs to hurt as much as they help.
-
As someone who was actually ON food assistance, I can assure you, they do.
