The average SNAP benefit is $6 a day, so I just tried to buy a week’s worth of groceries for $42.
Meanwhile, Trump and Republicans want to cut SNAP to give tax cuts to billionaires.
Make it make sense.

To “see” money in a way even I ‘get’, convert it to time.
So 1 million seconds = 11.6 days
And 1 billion seconds = 31.7 years
$42 = oligarch pocket lint
