Maine Governor wants to stop EBT being used for candy/soft drinks

Healthy food is expensive, I pay almost three times more for my hormone free and organic food items. I think it is honorable for the government to want people to eat better and can see the reasoning in the act, but I also feel it is a nanny state bill. I would probably have voted against it if I were a Congress person. Sugar is vital for brain health, and is needed in moderation.

Yeah, I pretty much think the same. Contrary to some here, I don't think people choose poverty but if they're forced into using EBT, they should be able to have a candy bar once in awhile.
 
Foreign aid is another blip on the screen of our overall budget. Entitlements are our countries largest expense. If one is serious about the national debt then they need to start there.

Combined with military it isn't and most of the country's we give aid to are for a military purpose, basically, so we can keep bases in their countries or buy them as allies.
 
sigh what? You want to be Donald Trump and pull all our bases out of Germany, South Korea etc?

Yes, why do we need bases in Germany? NATO should have bases in South Korea, we don't need them there. If we brought the soldiers home from Germany and Japan, closed out bases there, put those soldiers on our borders to secure them, it would be a better plan than building a wall. I do not think that we need 700 bases around the world, and this has been my position since I have known you. I am for belonging to UN and NATO operation when Congress has declared such operations, but I don't think it is our job to police the world. I do not think that any nation should have nuclear weapons. so I don't agree that Japan and other nations should get them.

You are such an idiot. Anything greater than one second of pitch will drain water. Duh.

Did it ever occur to you that her compassion for her fellow humans compells her to want at least a modicum of pleasure in each of their lives if possible?

Imagine if you had no money. Zero income at all except EBT. THE TRUTH IS THAT YOU CAN'T IMAGINE IT.
It is impossible for you. Despite that you are completely off base in your wild idiotic assertion I disagree with Chritie on this.... only food stuffs should be bought with foodstamps.

The first cig I ever smoked 40 years ago was bought by a kid with a foodstamp he probably stole from his mother.

There absolutely have to be some rules for food stamp use.

Get off your high horse. You don't know my personal life experiences. There have been plenty of times where I had no money to pursue my wants yet was able to fulfill my needs. Welfare should be a safety net, not a hammock. You libs have made it a hammock not because you care about these folks but because you want them to vote Democrat. Be honest for once in your life.

Bull shit.
That is your baseless judgemental far right opinion and nothing more.

No, it is my finding based on a careful analysis of the data: means, motive, opportunity. In this instance, data proves that welfare breeds laziness, stupidity and denigration of inner cities while these same inner cities overwhelmingly vote Democrat.

There really is no other valid conclusion, especially when you factor in the fact that Democrats claim to be intellectually superior and better educated. If they are so smart, they should be able to see the real effects of their programs instead of claiming that they just need more funding for the program to produce a different result.

By the way, what is the purported end result of welfare?

That may indeed be some central planner's goal but it sure isn't Chritiefans you fucking lunatic

Oops on you- the truth came out:

Are you claiming C-Fan isn't smart?
 
how is NATO going to function without US army bases in Germany ( etc.) and Europe?
How do we stage an army (AF etc.), without the ability of that force to act as an expeditionary army when called for?

No you northern reject.
I am saying she is altruistic in her desires for her fellow humans not Machiavellian like you. As an untrustworthy piece of shit you thick everyone is like you.
