    Instead of "Blue apron-style" isn't it more accurate to say this is a "soup kitchen via the mail"?

        Sounds to me like “government trying to tell poor people what they should be eating.” Didn’t Republicans get up in arms when Michelle Obama was merely making suggestions about what people should eat?

        In my experience, the people that volunteer at soup kitchens actually care.

        Where are all the conservatives who threw a fit over Michelle Obama “telling people what to eat”??

        Michelle Obama wasn't giving kids shitty food for free.

        What if your neighbors in poor income housing steal your box of food. Do you and your kids go hungry for the month? If you are working one or two jobs and can’t be home to receive the box, what then?

        The government is trying to figure out how to screw poor people further so that they can pretend to care about deficits caused by trillions on tax cuts to rich people.

        Look, I’m all for reducing fraud, abuse, and administrative overhead of social programs by replacing the lot of them with a real universal basic income, but until we actually have that conversation, we can’t afford to contemplate outright scrapping of programs like SNAP.
