Oh SNAP

AOC with the hot take. If you make people who are able to work in order to get government provided food, they will starve.RaceBannon said:Oh SNAP

We've made it too easy for many in this country to choose idle poverty over working poverty.BearsWiin said:The cruelty is the point

AOC is as bright as BearsDontWiin...the change is only for people between the ages of 18 and 49 who are childless and not disabled.

Food stamps is an area where the Yang method of sending cash is better than what there is now. People can't even live on the scraps the government gives them now. I find that to be a good incentive to work but that's me
Massive inefficiency -
I seem to remember when I was a kid, those of us with 2 parents who worked and actually had enough money to bring the cool Hong Kong Phooey lunch pail to 3rd grade would make fun of the kids who were on the welfare. They knew it wasn't something to be proud of, that their parents were loosers.
Now it seems like it's a badge of honor for many.
And get off my lawn (shakes fist) -

I'm a little short of cash. Please send half of your money to me. If you don't you're cruel.BearsWiin said:The cruelty is the point

Ever since you can use your SNAP card at strip clubs and to buy liquor, cigarettes fan bear anything, I'm betting the amount of food purchased is about zero.RaceBannon said:Food stamps is an area where the Yang method of sending cash is better than what there is now.

If UBI eliminates SNAP then yes...Yang isn't proposing that though. He's pushing keeping everything and adding a $1k/month on top, and deducting from that $1/k what the people get in benefits from SNAP and other things. Its really a bizarre interpretation of the original UBI concept.RaceBannon said:Food stamps is an area where the Yang method of sending cash is better than what there is now.

Fuck Yang and the rest of the democratic communist party.

When her father died did he have no life insurance? No Social Security? He was a white collar professional. Why didn't he take care of his own family?

In 2017 there were 56 million students in K-12. 22 million of them received free lunches. The poverty rate is 12%.
There are a lot of people gaming the system. -

They have been trying to get me to sign up for free lunch since my kids started school, it has nothing to do with income. My kids say that the other kids look at them as suckers because they actually pay for their own school lunches.Bendintheriver said:In 2017 there were 56 million students in K-12. 22 million of them received free lunches.

I actually have seen them used for food.
Nothing like waiting in line behind someone with two carts full of groceries pay with their SNAP card and then see them load it into their brand new truck with paper plates.
Or follow an illegal alien while they use their SNAP cards and WIC coupons in their new Navigator. Then have them stopped at the border crossing and take a couple million dollars out of the car.
I liked driving their drug money back to log into evidence for counting. -

JFC @BearsWiin . It's an accurate observation of the way the welfare state works in the country. I for one am somewhat intrigued by the UBI concept because it's a way of providing for some basic needs w/o removing disincentive to work for most people.BearsWiin said:

Yet you can't actually argue the point I'm making. That sledog is lying when he says he's seen someone use their snap card then unload the groceries into a new pickup. And that he's seen an illegal use snap and WIC and unload millions of dollars at the border.SFGbob said:

More dollars are allocated to specific schools and districts based on the number of 'free lunch' kids they account for - it's simply a money grab.SFGbob said:

There are a lot of people gaming the system.
In the State of Washington now, even the athletic teams get accommodations the more free lunch kids they have enrolled. There are legitimate 4A population-wise schools in the state dropping down to compete against 2A schools based on the free lunch enrollees.
