In a serious note, do we send food to Jamaica or to the intercity welfare recipients?

Well, the Jamaicans did not cause that hurricane......

Feed people, who may actually starve or put people on a diet that will be good for them.

Tough choice

I am sure the Red Cross is accepting disaster donations for Jamaica.

I may have a skewed perspective, but SNAP reductions SHOULD increase junk food availability. If you eat healthy food, I expect you'll see very little change. Perhaps some beef price corrections.

…although if these companies accept looting and socialize the shrink - you may see prices across the board rise to subsidize the criminal class.


Anecdote time...

My daughter got tasked with bringing cookies for a choir party at school so my wife and I made a quick store trip. From the look of the cookie/chips aisle you would have thought hurricane Melissa was about to hit us. It was 90% cleared out on Tuesday night. It didn't dawn on me at the time that on Saturday the freebies get shut down.

Wait until after SNAP benefits go away. There will be a lot of premium steaks/foods that will need to be unloaded.

There is absolutely no way the bennies go away. Republicans know the dems own and run the media and can sway the masses who will believe anything they see on tv news. They've caved before and they'll do it again.

Charity should go to Jamaica - this is the exact situation that warrants it. We should all be giving with our resources to those in need due to circumstances beyond their control.

Doesn't need to be the government though (where some try to be charitable with OTHER PEOPLE'S resources).



Don't really see the case at all for government sponsored reallocation of resources to those who choose not to be productive enough here to feed themselves

Whats wild about this is that a human who's actually scared about starvation would be using this last installment to maximize shelf stable calories. Rice. Beans. Oatmeal. Peanut butter. Etc.

The human who grabs junk food instead is an idiot, not truly in need, or both.

42 million people on food stamps about to end. Are we looking at human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria?

Haitians will eat the cats, muslims will eat the dogs. Just know who your local anti-gunners are and make sure they stock up on plenty of food you can steal.

Fat obese American stereotype. Always talking about food.

The Dems have a problem.

Twenty years ago the lapdog media would be posting picture after picture in the news of some saucer-eyed waif purportedly being starved by the mean old Republicans.

They will still try this, no doubt.

But now, we have legions of 300 pounders screaming on their social media accounts how they will just steal it from the store or rob you in the parking lot.

It dilutes the narrative somewhat.
