The party of Trump reduces food subsidies for poor Americans

[martin]

Trump seems to find pleasure in the cruelty he barely masks. Too many features of his administration like this one to be otherwise.

The bill locks in $187 billion in SNAP cuts that were already enacted through last year's reconciliation package. According to Farm Aid, those cuts affect roughly 42 million Americans who rely on food assistance. Democrats called it the largest cuts to food assistance in U.S. history,

I know of a person who just got approved for SSD...because she had gotten a lawyer and had to wait out a year in appeals....she finally won. She was awarded $24,000 in back payments, with pending payments of $1995.00 a month. She's in her late 30's...Her disability was mental depression and physical disabilities and was rendered incapable of holding down a job. Prior to her win, she was on welfare, recieving $400 plus in EBT payments and a small modest welfare check. To reward herself for all her struggles, she and her family are all planning a luxurious Florida vacation once school lets out. Which will include shopping, clubbing and swimming on beaches. She is currently living in a zero rent apartment because her SSD judgement came AFTER her move and reporting income is only required ANUALLY, once a year...so she has one full year of no rent payments. You can not on your best days make up how fucked up our social system has become. Some of these welfare hand out programs desperately need looking into.

Who are you trying to fool? We get little or nothing in return for that effort. It's no different than if I were hand out sandwiches to homeless people in the city where I live. They'd do little or nothing in return for those and still ask for more.

You are delusional.

I have given food to people begging on the streets. My payoff woulds elude you. I felt better helping a bit. Maybe you could beat them up and take it away,

I have given food to people begging on the streets.

That's your choice. My problem is when government uses my money to do it. You doing it is very charitable and I applaud you.

My payoff woulds elude you.

Whatever it is, I hope it makes you happy.

I felt better helping a bit.

Again, that's your choice and a commendable one. My problem is when government starts using OPM to do this instead.

Maybe you could beat them up and take it away,

Why would I do that? If you gave them money, that's between you and them. When government gives them money it's between me and the government and I want it stopped.

 

[Jake Starkey]

You have your vote, T. A., nothing more than that to insist.

 

[T. A. Gardner]

You have your vote, T. A., nothing more than that to insist.

Yes, I do. What I dislike is people voting to enrich themselves at my expense.

You are a Trumpy who hates people poorer than you. It is a sign of moral failure or drug abuse.They should be looked down upon and ridiculed. Of course, some of them are Vets, but the Repubs don't need them anymore.
I suppose you are aware that over half the people getting food stamps are children. Food stamps average about 187 bucks a month, a bit over 6 bucks a day. Of course, you want it stopped.
LBJ talked bout people like you. If you give some Americans somebody whom they can look down on (and judge). You can pick their pockets.

No, I don't. I expect people to make the most of their situation and work to improve it. As for veterans, most, the vast majority are very successful people. Sure there are failures too. I also don't count as a veteran someone who failed to finish their service honorably, particularly those with less than a year of service.

A good portion are also single mothers almost always due to stupid decisions they made with relationships. Not my problem.

LBJ screwed the country royally.

But it is okay for somebody like Trump to run foe office and enrich himself at your and our expense.

Illegal immigrants are no longer eligible for SNAP. This is a good thing.

Now we learn that America and Israel are causing global famine:

‘We’re helping 1.5 million people fewer today than we were before the war’ with Iran, says World Food Program executive​

Bianna Golodryga speaks with Matthew Hollingworth, Assistant Executive Director for Global Operations at the World Food Program, on how the war with Iran is increasing food insecurity around the world.

What war??

And when it comes back and hit the MAGAS watch them cry like babies.
YES there are a LOT of MAGAS this is going to effect and all I can say is this is what they wanted and got so they shouldn't cry you stupid MAGAS voted for this.

MAGAS isn't a word, Tball.

 

[Into the Night]

Yes and most of it has been caused by Trump and the really stupid things he is doing.

Void argument fallacy. TDS.

What is Diaper Don spending the billions that the US Congress intended to feed the poor with upon?

His garish and palatial ballroom?

More arms for Israel?

Who is 'Diaper Don'??

 

[Into the Night]

Yes, an unbelievable number that will almost certainly not be backed up by any evidence.

Already happened, Wally.

How much do you want to bet we have fewer convictions this year than usual... And certainly not half a million more convictions than usual?

Irrelevance fallacy.

It is the trump gold card all over again. they claimed there was a thousand applications on their first day for $5 million each, and that another million were coming soon. Now it turns out there is only ONE, and it might be the HONORARY one they gave to Minaj for free. The program has cost billions in "advertising", and has made either nothing, or a million dollars.

YARP

What's free? We get allies and great relations from doing that.

You get people sponging off of you. That's not a great ally, Sybil.

Unlike you, some people care about people starving and suffering across the globe.

The United States isn't the world, Sybil.

If we can help, we should.

Why do you want to take money from people by force and feed illegal aliens? Communism doesn't work, Sybil.

You show that extreme selfishness that characterizes Trump and his followers. The sad part is that you think you benefit from sucking up to the wealthy. When the poor are under their submission, they will come for you next.

The selfishness is yours. It is YOU that wants to take money by force from people to pay illegal aliens.

Trump compared to others who have been Presidents or even worse, Congress critters, is an amateur in that respect.

Care to link to a half million court cases proving a half million cases of fraud?

Claiming that fraud exists is very different than proving it in court. First thing is trump would have to come up with specific cases(and people). Then he would have to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.

We have already seen this tactic from trump before. A crazy number is released, and then he hopes we all forget it within a week or two. There is nothing backing it up.
