Who Are You Voting For Election 2026

The first is a non-issue for me. The second should be absolutely repealed in full. The third should have serious work / education requirements tied to it and use limited to staple goods only, no fast food, no ready to eat items, and no 'luxury' foods. I would make being on SNAP have mandatory classes those getting them have to attend in what amounts to home economics. That is, they have to demonstrate they can manage a budget, cook healthy meals with raw ingredients, operate a home kitchen, know housekeeping skills and apply them, etc. They can't do it, then they get to keep going to class until they can.
You are not going to get your way.
 
Whose undeserving and who are you to decide that?

Take you love of hungry children to someone who will cheer with you.

And all of what you are saying is not happening. Which 'undeserving' with a 'free ride.' Who is being hosed? You would be first in line hand out for "piles of cash."

Shut up unless you are going to be serious.

People capable of work who are not working. People who are capable of getting education to move into a job and aren't trying. That's two examples. And, no, being illiterate and stupid are not a disability.

  • In data tracking participation over a typical month in 2015, just over 50 percent of non-disabled adult recipients were working that month, but 74 percent had worked at some time in the 12 months before or after that month.


Just 50% are likely to have steady jobs. Most work only as much as they need to to keep the benefits coming. Others work only sufficiently to ensure they max out EIC when they file income taxes. People game the system. Not every recipient, but enough that it's a serious problem.
 
Bunch of talk with nothing on the walk.

Quit bitching, T A, and get to work.
Already there.

Most calls go like this...

 
Don't you find that depressing that the undeserving are getting a free ride while those actually in need are getting hosed? Or is it that you think the government should hand out piles of cash to whoever asks for it without question or any requirements attached?
True, the SNAP recipients are getting 6.13 per day for food. That is the high life,and you are paying for it all. Of course, every state determines qualifications, but the procedure is rigorous in most cases. The fact that over 80 percent of SNAP recipients are children, old people and invalids, ]means nothing to the right. Let them starve.
The only ones getting piles of cash are the super wealthy, and you approve of that.

You must be proud of Democrats for using SNAP recipients as leverage for their politicking then. :palm:

Assuming a family of 4 making about $40,000-a-year, they get just shy of $1000 a month in SNAP. That is sufficient that they can eat damn well if they aren't blowing that money on Micky D's five days a week. That's a $12,000 income boost per year. Toss in section 8, EIC (about $8,000), and other welfare and they're suddenly nearing $100,000-a-year income when you consider they don't pay taxes on any of that.



Of course, it makes perfect sense for such a family to say have two persons (the adults) each work a job for a few hours a week until they hit $20,000 then quit to ensure they don't go over the allowed income. Gaming the system to get and stay on welfare looks pretty damn good.

We need to massively change the system as it currently incentivizes not working and gaming the system to make a huge amount of money off the government for free.

The ones getting 'free' cash are people gaming the system and you approve of that. At least the super wealthy actually did something to make that money.

I'd rather support the rich being rich than the poor soaking society for 'free' money and being nothing but leeches.
