I can’t remember the exact percentage, but the majority of snap benefits are spent on soda and junk food, to the point it actually makes a good share of companies like coca colas profits. Cheap, unhealthy calories also cause massive malnutrition, so while this person is 500 pounds they likely are actually starving from vitamin and mineral deficiency, which then tells the brain you’re hungry and these idiots shovel down more trash calories.
Yeah, the "welfare" that's supposed to help people is basically dedicated to poisoning them.
What Fredomlogic clearly isn't getting is that we're not complaining about the lack of personal responsibility. We're complaining that the government is actively poisoning the general population for corporate welfare, and regardless of individual initiative, the system isn't just broken, but intentionally set against everyone.
It’s both. Junk food as indulgence is a personal responsibility, especially when you can cook at home cheaper than buying processed crap and most meals are ~30 minutes if you have decent knife work and competency. The reason Coca Cola profits so much off EBT is that the people receiving EBT are lazy and want junk food. You can also argue that these companies make their food intentionally addictive and go out of their way to make sure EBT covers their poison. This is however no different than the neighborhood dilemma, when any neighborhood can increase or decrease in value based on either government intervention or how the community treats its land.
I disagree with the fact that you can cook at home cheaper than buying processed crap. At the end of the day, buying healthy ingredients will cause costs to go up, especially when meat is involved.
It’s true, I’ve done it for over a decade. Especially when you consider macros and nutrient density. If everyone bought healthy ingredients the market would change to reflect it. Currently demand is for shit food that’s precooked so that’s what is being supplied.
It would make the market change slightly the problem is that factory farming inevitably creates shit food that's low cost. Why farm all sorts of different foods when you could just grow an infinite amount of corn syrup for ALL foods.
Agricultural Commodities traders linked with Agribiz like Cargil are also partly to blame for this because they are trying to set the market. They don't want retailers, grocers, or anyone really, to buy food that they didn't make. So, they'll make contracts to monopolize what retailers can even purchase.
I really cant figure this board out. I think you guys are anti corporate, anti authoritarian, but then all you guys do is blame people for decisions that may not even be totally in their control. Reminds me a bit of the local subreddit calling me a liar when I was begging for help with the refrigerant poisoning.
Imagine being poisoned by a million dollar company and everyone thinks your faking it and you got entities like wcb fabricating evidence to make you look insane, and absolutely no one gives a fuck.
Dont act like you care about these people, you dont even care enough to look up what your talking about.
The findings show that the No. 1 purchases by SNAP households are soft drinks, which accounted for 5 percent of the dollars they spent on food. The category of ‘sweetened beverages,’ which includes soft drinks, fruit juices, energy drinks and sweetened teas, accounted for almost 10 percent of the dollars they spent on food. “In this sense, SNAP is a multibillion-dollar taxpayer subsidy of the soda industry,” said Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition, food studies and public health at New York University. “It’s pretty shocking.”
So pop makes 5%, "fruit" juice makes up the other 5%. Thats not a majority. Funny how they arent targeting the shit that retards think are "healthy", better focus on pop which everyone knows is fucking poison but it so massively addictive thanks the amount of sugar put in it, should be fucking illegal.
By design, SNAP assistance levels are just high enough to fund purchase of a nutritionally adequate diet, so SNAP participants' purchases of sweetened beverages may replace purchases of healthier foods that are required to meet the government's dietary standards.22 According to a recent study of a large supermarket chain, carbonated soft drinks accounted for 6.9% of the grocery bill of SNAP users, compared with 4.38% for the average shopper.23 These purchases of sweetened beverages should be limited, to free up funds to achieve SNAP's aim of providing low-income families with a nutritionally adequate diet. This is all the more true if SNAP benefit levels are being cut.
In 2006, only 67% of eligible people received SNAP assistance.26 Use of SNAP assistance has increased dramatically during the recent recession, but an estimated 15 million people who are currently eligible for SNAP assistance still do not receive it.27 Thus, there is a need to increase eligible people's use of SNAP assistance. Reducing the stigma associated with use of SNAP might be crucial to achieving that end. Eligible nonparticipants have identified stigma as a reason why they wouldn't seek SNAP assistance, although stigma is not the most commonly identified reason, and only 14% of eligible nonparticipants identify stigma as a reason for not seeking SNAP assistance.
To expect people to eat healthy food when they lack physical and financial access to good provisions is absurd, so programs that increase low-income people's access to healthy food should be encouraged. An example is New York City's Health Bucks program, which gives SNAP participants who spend $5 in SNAP assistance at farmers' markets an additional $2 coupon to spend at farmers' markets. Ideally, increasing SNAP participants' consumption of fruits and vegetables would automatically decrease their consumption of unhealthy foods, making it unnecessary to exclude unhealthy foods from SNAP. Unfortunately, when people add fruits and vegetables to their diet, they do not necessarily reduce their overall energy consumption; nor do they necessarily lose weight.40 Incentives to eat healthy food must be supplemented with efforts to reduce consumption of unhealthy foods. Improved nutrition education for SNAP participants might reduce consumption of sweetened beverages, but whether education would be as effective as a sweetened beverage exclusion is unknown.
Nah fuck those fat asses.
Also, I was going to chime in, its never the adults that suffer from stuff like this, its the children, the voices you do not hear.
Better to buy more bullets and bombs, fuck the people.
The only thing that even backs up what your saying is this.
Recipients spend much of their payouts on junk food, such as soft drinks, chips and other bag snacks, breakfast cereals, frozen handheld snacks, candy, frozen pizza, ice cream coffee creamer, and cookies.
Other items on the top 20 list can also be problematic, experts warn.
Shelf stable juice, for example, often includes added sugar.
Lunchmeat and fresh chicken frequently have had nitrates added as a preservative, which have been linked to breast and prostate cancer.
Even some baked breads and breakfast cereals found in grocery stores can be a worry, when they contain some food dyes and preservatives.
Heavily-processed foods have more synthetic ingredients that have little nutritional benefit and can cause harmful effects on the body.
They also contain more artificial ingredients like colorings and dyes, which have been linked to conditions like hyperactivity and cancer.
Dickerson, a former House Budget Committee advisor, says food stamp enrollment surged from 17.3 million beneficiaries in 2001 to 42.1 million last year.Meanwhile, SNAP costs have exploded from $31 billion to $135 billion, his report says, using inflation-adjusted numbers.That's close to the entire annual turnover of Morocco.
Thats 90% of the food thats on the shelves, you tards.
Looks more like a overview of how fucked we are by the uber rich than how it is all poor peoples fault.
Bag snacks is #4, frozen handhelds and snacks is #9, and candy is #11. I gurantee its much like what your shopping baskets look like if your a average working pleb. You also cant spend food stamps on hot food, aka fast food. Maybe some cold subs from your corner gas station, if your lucky. I grew up on food stamps, prolly would have grown up starving in the richest nation on earth if my family hadnt, that being said, id accept food stamps for my kids, but I wouldnt accept them for myself. My plan is just to go homeless and die, if it makes you feel better, like the other 33% of americans who are to proud to accept handouts.
I told a halifax endocrinologist, some fancy ass big shot from dalhousie, that I was drinking 2 l of cola a day trying to keep my phosphorous up, and while his student looked concerned, he didnt give a fuck. Take more vitamin d he says. What a faggot bitch.
Another thought here as well. The rich drink their wines and champagne, all people did back in the day but us poor retards cant afford shit like that now.
Not gonna read all that bullshit, especially when you start out on such a retarded note in the first paragraph. Eat less poisonous bullshit and you won't be a fat ass.
So pop makes 5%, "fruit" juice makes up the other 5%. Thats not a majority. Funny how they arent targeting the shit that retards think are "healthy", better focus on pop which everyone knows is fucking poison but it so massively addictive thanks the amount of sugar put in it, should be fucking illegal.
I said pop and junk food, if your brain wasn’t broken by being addicted to shitty unhealthy food (which is a choice) you might have the reading comprehension to figure that out.
Nah fuck those fat asses.
Also, I was going to chime in, its never the adults that suffer from stuff like this, its the children, the voices you do not hear.

Why are the children suffering, is it because the “adults” buy the shitty groceries? Again you’re going on a near psychotic rant to say absolutely nothing considering your own hyper libtard link admit that snap beneficiaries eat like shit intentionally.
Thats 90% of the food thats on the shelves, you tards.
Again the mentality of a brain broken retard. It’s not 90% of food on shelves, it’s 90% of food you want to consume because you’re a broken person and likely don’t even cook for yourself. I can make 2 frittatas that is packed with nutrients for 7 dollars using a half dozen eggs, bell peppers, spinach and cheese, that’s the same price as a frozen pizza.

Poor person brain in action, why are you paying someone more to make a shitty sandwich when you can make a healthier one on your own for cheaper? All you’re showing is you’re addicted to shit food and too lazy to actually cook food you didn’t even pay for.

How can you not figure this out? People are (and should be) responsible for their choices; as a general rule children are not responsible for making those choices. That's why people here don't pearl clutch and cry, "But what about the children?" every time someone with kids proves to be a dumbass.
Saying these people are not capable of changing or controlling themselves is a bigotry of low expectations. They are capable. They may need some help to fight their addictions, but needing a little counseling for addiction doesn't mean they cannot do it.
If anything she’s proof that we should continue to cut food support.
Also, never understood how these people get so big. I’ve had to eat out twice this week due to me screwing up badly on my grocery shopping and being unable to go get more and I feel like a revolting slob.
There is a reason that those benefits are in the Farm Bill not the general budget. (I didn't say I agreed with it)
The purpose of them is to fill bottomless hambeasts with government paid for food to drive up the cost of food for everyone else. Always has been and they are fairly open about it.
Because the “food” they spend the benefits on isn’t actually food, it’s just processed shit and sugar. They’re addicts that eat 3000 calories a day and still feel like they need to eat more because they’re deficient in everything that’s necessary.
One of her kids is 21. Fucker should be working now if not completely out of the house. Same for the 17-year-old. You're poor; start looking for a job YESTERDAY. And as for the 12 and 11-year-old, it's always suspicious when you see such a age range in the children. Bitch has been intentionally spawning crotch goblins just to reap these benefits and coast along. It's the only reason she does so, considering how much of a struggle she claims to have had raising just her first kid.
And as is usual with these types, I bet she has plenty leftover for beer and cigarettes.

Which I can agree with
The system is not set against jews
jews control the political parties, the central banks, fake news, Hollywood, publishing, broadcast, stock exchanges, etc
Quiet stupid.
You didn't tell me I was wrong.

Long-term bad diet decisions can be a slippery slope that fucks up the body so badly it can't be fixed outside of drugs. IMO.
Retarded take. Every hambeast can lose weight by restricting calories. Zero drugs are required.
Man, I've known people who have reversed their diabetes by changing their diet. If it's possible to do that, anyone can lose weight.
Her rendered lard alone could be used by 12 families for over 6 years while cooking their food.
She has been putting way to much food on the table to the point she is making herself sick and grossly deformed.
Time to cut her benefits.
Lol the comments.
SNAP pays for soda and desserts, as well as highly processed food. It's real easy to get fat and dependent on medicaid through snap.
There is a reason that those benefits are in the Farm Bill not the general budget. (I didn't say I agreed with it)

This is fuckibg comedy

There's no way they haven't had enough food, given that there's enough of that one to make 3 other normal sized people.
