Do u believe people on food stamps should buy junk food 🍔

There is a huge uproar on Tik Tok about this current issue today. States are now putting limitations on what you can purchase with EBT cards.
No more chips and soda and sweets can be bought anymore through the SNAP program. And
that you can only buy fruits, vegetables, bread, dairy and meats. Hmmmmm.
Do you believe that this is fair ? Do you believe the government should be telling US what to eat.
The floor is yours SW. Best answer wins.☺🍊

If there is a unsustainable social and economic cost to people consuming junk food then yes, of course government should intervene. But the intervention should not be restricted to those dependent upon public subsidy for their nutrition. It should be applied equally throughout society.

OK, so the government should outlaw anyone eating anything that that a destitute person can't afford.

All that hot air and you NEVER say anything 🤡

@Thrust so if someone on welfare can’t afford a BMW, then no one should own a BMW hahah

@Thrust you must remember when AOL first came out and the voice would say “you’ve got mail”. My friends and I would go around saying “you’ve got .. crabs “ haha

@Thrust Conservatives justify these restrictions on public health grounds. If those grounds are factual and reasonable (and not just an excuse for humiliating poor people) they should apply universally.

@SunshineGirl It's not just poor people on food stamps ma'am nowadays.
Half the country is on it. Things are different now. You ain't seen nothing yet. Some people are about to be humbled.

@Zonuss All the more reason to show a little empathy.
