Any able body human figure out how to budget for groceries like everyone else that doesn't get food stamps

Probably won't happen. They will figure out some way to remedy this. For as much as the American media have been successful in making the ghetto black woman the welfare queen the halting of snap hurts a lot more than just them. It hurts the poor white woman who still recieve it more and it will tremendously hurt food markets all across the country who rely on snap customers at a significant rate. This might be a play from the trump administration to create the issue and become the solution and make himself more favorable to the American public. This happens the ramifications goes beyond just more theft in the hood. You playing with Walmart Walgreens jewels etc money now who already barely making it.

60% SNAP récipients have families
35% SNAP récipients are white
25% SNAP récipients are black

Theyre playing with fire…

Yea it's not only hurting the stores, but the suppliers and other markets people won't have the expendable cash to do anything of leisure bars will suffer movie theaters will suffer etc people won't travel as much this has a ripple effect far beyond just cutting off a few chicks who got a lot of kids.

Won’t matter when they’re getting rid of the food in record time. Food banks warned of possible struggles around BBB time. They’ll have food but it won’t last long and people still will suffer because they’ll get to the bank too late

I mean its true. The majority of America can figure out how to eat and provide food for their families without govt assistance if you're not old or disabled you should as well.

EBT in its current form only exist to subsidize retail markets and grocers and farmers if your being truthful. The average whale sized American ain't really in danger of starving.

Ehhh most of the people on SNAP have it for a reason.

It's not people playing the system

You could be able bodied, but still get layed off from your job. It could take weeks or months to find another job.

That's an example of SNAP coming through clutch for emergency situations
