The nation’s largest anti-hunger program could soon face its most significant funding rollback in history to offset President Donald Trump’s massive tax cuts bill.

House Republicans revealed the budget proposal for their partisan megabill, which some policy analysts warn would “eviscerate” the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Critics say the funding would be used to finance tax breaks that disproportionately benefit the richest Americans.

The tax plan, also known as Trump’s “one big, beautiful bill,” is currently moving through the U.S. House of Representatives and calls for gutting the public-benefits program by nearly $300 billion over the next decade.\

14 million children could face food shortages as well.

Oh if only those 14 million children were fetuses in a brain dead woman's body, then it would matter to make sure they are taken care of.

 
If this happens these people better examine what they prioritize with their money. Smart phones and Netflix aren't necessary when you have to eat. Food costs money, and you'll die without it.

We could save a ton of money by restricting the usage of food stamp benefits to unprepared food purchased only from grocery stores. But then welfare queens would have to accept the lifestyle below what they think they deserve and big agribusiness couldn't get taxpayer money. So instead it can be used to buy junk food from convenience stores.

I just had some Trump water carrier in another thread complain to me that under Biden people had to use food banks! I wonder if he'll post in here defending Trump. Probably not.

We need to put the babies to work !
 
What's happening is that the feds are pushing the responsibility for funding these types of social safety net programs back on the states. This will result in less transfer of wealth from tax surplus states such as California, New York etc., to tax deficit states such as Mississippi and Alabama. Wonder how those states are going to fare?

Good, poor people should just ****ing die. They're a drain on America. They're holding us back from being great again!
 
Poor people deserve no food assistance if they can afford 8$ a month for Squid Game and Casa de Papel.

They could buy a whole pack of eggs with them 8$. Clearly, they aren't that hungry!

Also, why can't poor people just buy dumb phones so they can prove to us how poor they are? Even minimum wage, living in their cars poor people can't get smarphones and we dont give them SNAP!

Lol.

😅

You libs melt down over literally everything. SNAP spent $110 billion last year up from $60 billion in 2019. Taking $30 billion off last years number would still leave us significantly higher than 5 years ago. Obviously, you libs believe that Bidens economy was so horrible that SNAP spending had to double during his term.

Bootstraps.
 
Anyone hungry should visit a soup kitchen or beg in the streets like hobo's did when America was great around 1901.
Even with the proposed cuts SNAP spending will be 50% higher than it was in 2019

Then out of the other side of their (leftists) mouths they claim to be pro-constitution. Could you perhaps point out where in the constitution the federal government has the power to establish and maintain such programs?

In many states, free breakfast AND lunch is provided for ALL students in government schools, REGARDLESS of the financial situation of the parents.

Cool. Let's add starvation into the mix. That won't inspire violence even a little. Ask the French.
 
How do you know they aren’t. Did someone on Fox News tell you that?

It's simple numbers. Look athe the percentage of Americans that have a smart phone, a TV service, high speed internet, etc and the percentage of Americans that receive welfare, and you'll see welfare queens are buying non-essentials because they don't have to pay for food.

So if they lose their freebies they'll get no sympathy from me.
 
Or maybe their parents should make food the first thing they spend money on.
Yeah, you tell em' People on welfare are spending those funds on pedicures and slot machines!
They're all irresponsible assholes.

Ok, lets see.

If spending only $90 billion in 2025 will cause starvation and violence, why wasnt there violence and starvation in 2019 when we spent only $60 billion on SNAP

Have you heard the term Broad Brushing?

In your opinion nobody deserves food assistance, right?
