    why is it better to pay for fine china at mar a logo than a senior citizen on a strict budget using food stamps to buy a piece of rib eye?

    both of these are at the tax payers expense.

    can someone please explain...…..I dare you!

    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.
    Why should they be given sugary foods that are not good for them?

    why is it better to pay the salary of the doorman at dump tower than paying for a birthday cake for a kid who's mother is using food stamps because she works at Walmart?

    both of these are at the tax payers expense.

    can someone please explain...…..I dare you!

    TTQ64:

    “But in reality, it's the elderly and the military who receive the most food stamps.”

    Horse mierda.

    “Who receives SNAP

    Sam Walton’s children aren’t on welfare or food stamps.

    Indeed they do.

    The people who pay for the food stamps have a say as to what can be bought with those food stamps.

    The ones who sell them for cash aren’t buying food.

    Nobody said it is better. Everything is not a binary choice.
