There are a lot of legitimately poor people getting SNAP but most of them are working people who are applying because of the rising food prices.
The ones that get on my nerves are the college students. The rule is that they are not entitled to SNAP benefits unless they are working 20 hours a week or more.
But now there's a loophole. They can now receive it if they are participating in an LPIE (Local Program which increases employability). We get these pink-haired kids with nose piercings and face tattoos talking about how they want food stamps to buy snacks when they are stoned.
And the schools not only sign them off as participating in an LPIE, but they are encouraging the students to apply.
So many of them are taking classes based on identity. It's disgusting.
This administration needs to bring back the ABAWD rule. Able Bodied Adults without Dependents. It means they only get SNAP for 6 months and if they're not working at the end of the six months then they are cut off.
I agree to an extent.
