Americans on food stamps could be banned from buying ‘bad food and sugary drinks,’ Trump USDA chief says
“When a taxpayer is putting money into SNAP, are we OK with us using their tax dollars to feed really bad food and sugary drinks to children who perhaps need something more nutritious?”…
It’s about time!! Watching food stamps being used at gas stations for pop and cookies or chips drives me crazy!!!
Not only that. Food stamps given to homeless people and disabled allows them to use EBT for fast food places. They can’t go to any other restaurants or even get a sandwich somewhere instead. Burgers and fries is all. I assume the fastfood industry lobbied on this.
they can go to the deli and get a cold sandwich at the grocery store.
Yeah, I know in most states they can only buy cold food with food stamps. Doesn't stop them from buying junk at the grocery store though.
Take there Obama cell phones away too they can BUY their own too
How about Trump internet (starlink) instead of Obama phones. Then they at least have to meet us in the middle and buy a simple and cheap computer or phone to go with it. Kinda like with the cold food thing where you have to show some responsibility and figure out how to cook it yourself.
This will help which States need it implemented ASAP. https://www.cdc.gov/obesity/data-and-statistics/adult-obesity-prevalence-maps.html
