Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says data from blue states is "going to give us a platform and a trajectory to fundamentally rebuild this program, have everyone reapply for their benefit, make sure that... they literally are vulnerable and they can't survive without it." | Clips
I had to steal to eat when I was homeless. Those orga didn’t find me and I didn’t have the resourced to be aware of them. Your homeless radar is extremely off if you can “tell” I haven’t been. Maybe you just got lucky when you were homeless, but the people I had to struggle with all had to at least steal once to get the only meal they’d have for a few days
Fair enough. But it’s silly to think, and imply, that all poor people steal. That’s just not true. And is a horrible stereotype that you shouldn’t be pushing.
I never implied that, I simply said some need to, you took it to the extreme that all of them have to. I’m okay with 1.6% of all SNAP being fraud, we can deal with that after we deal with the reason why millions of people are on it in the first place.
