    President Trump & @HouseGOP’s America: where billionaires get corporate welfare while children and seniors go hungry. This is immoral, plain and simple. Congress can do better – by working #ForThePeople, not for the richest.https://www.vox.com/2018/10/15/17978222/republican-work-rules-food-stamps-medicaid …

        What they're really doing is punishing people for being poor.

        This would leave millions of people vulnerable of losing their livelihood. What’s worse, though, is too many people receiving gov assistance are devout Trump supporters. They need to know the truth: he doesn’t care about them.

        Bullshit Republicans stop Obama at every turn and sabotage Obamacare it's for one reason he was black and white supremacy Republicans could not handle a black man as president that's why #TreasonousTrump is trying to erase his presidency

        Perhaps a better idea than taking necessary nourishment away from the truly needy, would be to disallow junk food, sodas and most off all pricy foods such as OYSTERS ON HALF SHELL, prime rib etc. just saying

        ☝️This is according to the US DEPT of Agriculture. The @gop’s immoral plan of cutting these programs should make it clear to their White voting bloc that they don’t care about them. They never have! 🤷🏻‍♂️ #BLUEWAVE2018 @DNCpic.twitter.com/8HWR9m58Ij

        There is no sun rise without sunset. There is no wealth without hard work, there is no gain without pain. We need to stop this liberal nonsense about kids, poor and vulnerable. We all need a push and tug not stuck in poverty forever !!!

        I'm for helping the people who need it but as your picture shows a woman with tattoos getting food that's the problem.When I applied for welfare I saw people with new ink,shoes and phones and some who smelled of weed. Solve that and you got my vote

        I got foodstamps for a few years and have 2 tattoos. My job didn't suffice so I needed it. Don't judge what you don't understand. Just because people are poor doesn't mean they aren't worthy to enjoy life.

        I'm not saying if they are poor they shouldn't get them but when I tried to get them people were in their with fresh ink,the newest phones and seemed like they were using that to live on and not budgeting money right instead of using it as a safety net as it was intended.

        But you never know if it was a gift from someone, or why they had it. You couldn't get it so you made up in your mind why they aren't deserving.
