I don’t know why I bother going on X. But if you want a response to these idiots calling for SNAP and WIC to be restricted on food choices, while they do nothing to cut defense spending here you go. I am so fucking sick of this system.

I’ll keep posting this to any douchebag arguing to abolish or limit SNAP or WIC. I know enough people on these programs, and they’re not living the fucking high life you brain dead morons. Let them buy a bag of chips and a Coke. #SNAP #WIC #DefenseBudget
•Meanwhile, the defense budget was $849 billion—about 3.4% of GDP
Personally, I’d rather my taxes help people meet basic needs—even if that includes the occasional bag of chips—than continue expanding tools for destruction.
There are plenty of job opportunities outside of the defense sector, and maybe it’s time we invest more in industries that support life rather than take it.
The worst thing is... It doesn't matter what people on SNAP buy.. People just hate that poor people exist. SNAP recipients could buy steak and potatoes.. People would be angry they're eating steak. They buy candy? It's wasted on junk food. NO ONE WILL EVER BE HAPPY.
