        Not a thing in it would be fresh "harvest". 😡: assistance dollars can be used at larger farm stands here. people get real veggies, and it helps local farmers. At very least most of the $ are used at local grocery stores. This cuts out local jobs to provide processed crap ☹️

        I see A LOT of ppl buying cokes, potato chips, candy, canned goods, boxed pizzas, etc who pay with the EBT card when at grocery checkouts. The “healthy food cry” is fake. Accurate data needed on this.

        Ya know that poor people are allowed to enjoy the same nasty unhealthy foods that not poor people eat, right? They’re still people. They’re allowed to enjoy snacks and sodas and should be allowed access to whatever they want to eat.

        If that were the problem they could restrict purchase of items w/certain barcodes. This is yet another attempt to privatize a current gov't service. If Wal-Mart got contract why would they give raises when they could just sell more boxes for their own poorly paid employees?

        Yes, let's worsen nutritional imbalance intake in the poor, increase the risk of hypertension and its complications with the salt content in canned food and while we're at it, increase cost to the states of managing these perspective patients in the healthcare system.

        For a party that has long touted “choice—one might even say of personal responsibility—when making economic decisions,” the @GOP certainly seems to care very little for economic freedoms. But, then again, the hypocrisy over their “family vaues” speaks volumes.

        I would have thought that giving people a handful of KFC or McDonald’s coupons would have been more trump’s style.

        Those who are on welfare that can work will quickly get off with this solution. America wins

        Idiot. Most people on welfare are either disabled or DO work full time at minimum wage jobs. Around here min wage is 7.25 and living wage is 11.00/hour

        The idea floated is they would be shipped to your home. So: if you are homeless? Or if you are poor and live in a bad neighborhood and it gets stolen? Plus all that shipping adds to the carbon footprint. And takes sales/ jobs from local stores.

        Nobody does that to a degree worth talking about. Nobody. SNAP is not a lot per person a day and recipients do everything in their power to make it stretch and last the whole month. Diaf.

        I don’t know where you live but trust when I say people do that...sell the cards....you name it and it’s being done. Not saying everyone does it but that will help things.

        Most fraud is by retailers and financially bigger by far. And almost every SNAP recipient treats their amount like a blessing. I've been on SNAP when things hard. The luxury things were very rare. It won't make it better for everyday folks by making it harder. Full stop.
