Working white people have complained about this for decades. Our tax dollars buy candy bars for obese blacks and illegals. SNAP should be good only for buying rice, flour, rolled oats, and bananas.

may 7 2019 The Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Plan (SNAP) currently offers low income families a cornucopia of junk foods, including candy, cookies, desserts, caffeinated beverages, soda pop, potato chips, and other processed foods that are stripped of their nutrients. This taxpayer-funded program is imprisoning low income families by making them sick, tired, weak, depressed, and susceptible to chronic disease.
Texas State Representative Briscoe Cain has introduced HB 4364, which limits the amount of junk food SNAP recipients can toss into their shopping cart. “At-risk Texans and families who utilize the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are often the most susceptible to diabetes and the serious complications associated with it,” says Cain, a Republican from Baytown County. “HB 4364 seeks to curb the spread of diabetes and other health complications among Texans in at-risk populations by eliminating sugary drinks and snacks from the state’s nutrition assistance program.”
Nearly a quarter of all SNAP benefits are spent on junk foods
The U.S. Department of Agriculture keeps tabs on the kinds of foods SNAP recipients consume. The results are dismal. Nearly a quarter (23 percent) of all food that is snatched up is from the junk food category.

I agree with putting restrictions on what foods are eligible for SNAP, but that rice, flour, rolled oats, and bananas only nonsense is bullshit.
Bread, milk, fruits, vegetables, meats and everything else that goes into the average persons diet need to be included.
Restrict expensive foods like filet mignon, shrimp cocktails, lobster, and high end candies and ice cream like Dove or Godiva etc, and of course, no beer, wine or liquor.
But kids should be allowed to be kids which includes a little candy and cake and ice cream and soda pop. Just make it so only the grocery store brands are eligible.
C'MON MAN!!!!

I bet Earl and TDaK have both collected free gub'mint handouts in one form or another at least once in their lives.
I've never met a right-wing, gub'mint & tax-hatin wing nut who hasn't collected taxpayer funded freebies before.
They bitch and moan about the gub'mint and handouts while they're lined up at the feeding trough with everyone else.
Then after they've filled their fat bellies courtesy of our taxes, they Bellow about how everyone else should be forced to eat nothing but potatoes.
C'MON MAN!!!!
Link...otherwise you are lying.
