    Again, "Edible foods" is not a restriction on food stamps. It's what differentiates Food Stamp Programs from Welfare.

    "Sugary foods" is a restriction on what qualifies as "edible foods". To do so would be to add extra government involvement...not remove it.

    But we're also united, like some sort united States.

    So, if you are poor, you should live like shit and eat shit because hey you're poor and that's all you deserve. I have an idea lets feed them dog food because hey it's cheap and well its my taxes.

    whoever is paying for it is not relevant because that statement still stands. face it your mad that you are paying taxes so you want the people who are on foods stamps it to suffer because you think your better then them.

    What if someone is on food stamps because worked their whole life and are old and the cost of living is too much?? They also shouldn't be allowed to eat what they god damn want?

    What about someone who was born with a illness and they can only work part time and need food stamps? Should they also get punished?


    To all the Food Nazis out there,

    Fuck Off!

    If you read the article I just linked...you would see exactly "Who said it?"

    It's in one of the Bolded sections that you quoted.

    He brings up a good point, though.

    Some people on food stamps are on SSI disability and are unable to work. Should they never be allowed to buy a candy bar, or soda, or bag of chips for the rest of their life?

    That seems pretty unreasonable.

    Taco bell is pretty damn hard to resist.

    I am currently mourning over my White Castle being closed till the fall. It breaks my heart when I drive past on my way home from work.

    Actually, I would do away with the program for the most part. But only by adding basic income to every citizen who is at the working age. Would get a bunch of people off of welfare programs. Which, of course I would happily pay higher taxes for.

    <---- This guy. Allowing millions of people to buy unhealthy non-nutritious items contributes to a wide variety of health disorders which we are on the hook for paying for. We are creating more problems in the effort to solve only one.

    Don't play dumb. #FOODNAZI

    The fact is people don't have the right to tell a person on ssdi or someone who has worked their whole lives that they shouldn't be able to get a treat once in a while. I mean holyshit life alrdy sucks for them. when youre broke, sometimes all they have is food to bring a fucking smile on their face and all the food nazis out there want to take even that away.. Jesus

    That kind of solution would only affect the people on SNAP...and only in their direct use of their SNAP benefits for junk food. It wouldn't have much impact overall on medical costs.

    So, you're against them using SNAP to pay for junk food...but you are in favour of giving basic income which the same people using SNAP to buy junk food...can then use to buy junk food?

    Doesn't seem that your solution would fix the problem you have with the program

    Will a food nazi explain to me why food stamp people shouldn't be able to use food money to buy w/e food they want? why is it ok for you and not them? is it because you think your better so because of that they should be limited?
    What about old people who worked their whole lives but because of inflation they are on food stamps?
    What about people on disability they shouldnt be able to buy a soda with food stamps?
