Food stamps should only cover rice and beans-a complete protein. That way they won’t be so many poor people who are fat.
I’d be willing to add vegetables and canned tuna to the list, but I agree.
I worked as a cashier while in college. I could spot the EBT users a mile away, they were the ones whose carts were full of junk and whose kids were out of control.
Only once did I see an exception. A woman came through my line with healthy foods that were all on sale, things like fresh carrots and flour. She had two kids with her, but they were well-behaved and stayed close to her. It astonished me when she pulled out her EBT card, and she looked so ashamed of it that I did everything I could to make it painless for her.
I never saw her again, but I often pray for her.
amen.
Fat people obviously do not need food stamps. If anything, they should be means tested so that anyone overweight cannot get them.
