Americans in five states who receive government assistance to buy groceries will face new limits starting Thursday on what foods they can purchase with those benefits.
Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, Utah and West Virginia are implementing waivers that restrict the use of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits to buy items such as soda, candy and other foods deemed unhealthy.
Why It Matters
The changes are part of a broader push by the Trump administration’s health and agriculture leaders to curb diet-related diseases by reshaping the $100 billion program that serves about 42 million people. Critics warn the move could create confusion at grocery stores and may not improve health outcomes for recipients.
The videos of some of these “snap benefits” people are infuriating…one woman said she gets $4200 per month! and bragged about buying “luxury meats” – another said she has 7 different baby daddies and she did it deliberately so she wouldn’t have to ever work. Don’t forget the ones that complain they won’t be able to buy junk food-CRY ME A RIVER to all the leeches! I have no problen when there is a legitimte need for some assistance, but it should never be a lifestyle!
A number of these women work as cashiers @ Sams Club on North Salisbury Blvd , and still get government checks
One is a Black girl that works the gas station
And she is one nasty feral towards whitey seen it many times.
“Critics warn the move could create confusion at grocery stores and may not improve health outcomes for recipients.”
Critics criticize. It’s the sum total of what they do.
Confusion at the grocery store should end after one shopping trip. Look for the SNAP Eligible signs.
Buy all the cookies, soda and candy you want, but not on our dime, thank you.
