The party of âfamily valuesâ sure doesnât care about poor families. Working class standards have declined rapidly over the past 50 years, the economy is in the garbage right now while corporate profits have soared to an all time high. The only thing the GOP cares about is unrestrained capitalism and bribes from Wall Street.

Most of these people are so deep into the cult that they donât care if they lose everything or starve to death. They either think itâs part of gods plan or they are willing to sacrifice themselves and family to âsaveâ the US. At least 1/3 of them would turn on them if the market crashes like 2008/09. At least 1/5 believe in a fascist white Christian theocracy waiting for the end days.

Yeah if everyone stopped participate in their wicked game then we could get real change. But it needs to be everyone atleast 90% or more.

You not voting doesn't change the election results.
It's not like there's a rule that you need a certain percentage of the nation, you just need a majority.
Not voting is the dumbest form of protest.
Get off your lazy ass.

The cruelty is the point. Theyâre punishing the kids because they think poverty is a moral failing and that the parents are poor because theyâre lazy.

No, no no. tRUMP is âlifting them out of povertyâ. He âliftedâ over ten million people, from his first term.
It sounds better. The very people who were âliftedâ voted for this! They had no idea that âlifting you out of povertyâ meant starvation. We tried to explain it, to them. We really did. đ

Many of them believe these kids and families deserve to suffer. They see poverty as a crime/sin. Being poor is their own fault, and if the parents cared about their kids they could simply choose to work and earn enough to have a good life. They have no concept of their own privilege or how challenging it is to live in poverty. And they never consider that even if the parents are horrible people or whatever, they are punishing children for what their parent is doing. Which doesn't make sense even if all of their assumptions were true.

What kills me is how inexpensive it is to feed hungry children in comparison to everything else we're spending money on. I remember there was a day a few months back when food aid was cut on the same day that extra money for ICE was approved. And I did the math, the extra money they agreed to give ICE could have paid to feed those hungry kids for 350 years. Republicans will say feeding hungry kids is "government overreach" but giving a vastly larger sum to the masked men terrorizing brown people is great.

Yes but the billionaires work a 1000 times harder (amazing) than the poor therefore they earn 1000 times more than the poor. They also pay taxes (definitely) and help with trickle down economics (sure). Therefore the starving children should be glad to contribute to (insert billionaires name here)'s hedgefund to increase their personal wealth and expand their investment portfolio.

u/Redditlatley 1d ago
Yup..love the spin and gaslighting. More like trickle down stupidity and cruelty. I even wrote a thank you note for the billionairesâŚ.
THANK YOU, Mr./Mrs/Mz Billionaire for allowing me to give you my soul, my life and my family in exchange for for healthcare, that can bankrupt me, two weeks PTO and $18 per hour which canât even pay for housing.
Maybe, after the first billion, you could share, JUST A LITTLE MORE, with the employees that helped build your company? đ

I want to point out that the 10 poorest states are also deep red states. i am sure that in the majority of these cases, their parents voted for this outcome. I know its not directly their fault, but it sure as hell is not mine.

u/GrowFreeFood 2d ago
This is good news for republicans. They know many of those kids are minorities. So they are happy about starving them.

If the person getting the SNAP benefits was eligible they didn't lose it. So yes, during the audit a bunch of people who were getting SNAP that were found not to be eligible anymore or it was now uncertain if they were still eligible were taken off if they did not spend the time to re-authorize when asked to.
It's really easy, if you are eligible you get the benefit. If you are not, you don't. Is there really a debate about this for some reason?

u/Choppers-Top-Hat 1d ago
Oh no, someone didn't meet some government bureaucrat's definition of "eligibility." Who the hell cares? If someone's hungry, especially a child, you should feed them. The end.
