Bakeries have been an economy of scale since like the Roman Empire because flour isn’t that useful to any but the most dedicated home cooks. There’s a genuine efficiency in cooking bread and stuff at a larger bakery and then selling bread to people at a slight up charge, idk the answer to food insecurity is making poors reinvent the wheel so to speak.

But yeah they shouldn’t be able to buy bottled water with their ration card.

I mentioned the use case in which people will buy super processed food (basically homelessness and no kitchen) even though I essentially agree and I wish SNAP encouraged buying more cheap unprocessed food like eggs and cabbages.

WIC actually does that; WIC is much more selective in what you can buy on it, SNAP is super broad and you can get basically any kind of food with it.
It depends on where you are, I suppose, but presently a loaf of bread is like 5 dollars at the grocery store near me, and costs me perhaps a dollar to make at home. Not sure the economy of scale is benefitting us anymore. People also didn't commonly have their own oven in their home in ancient rome so the comparison is rather absurd.
 
Can someone explain in simple terms to a Bong how this is happening?

It’s both Dems and Trump at a stalemate over something and so federal funds aren’t being released, hence benefits being stopped?
you see, America prints so fucking much money it causes problems, which we take out basically as a loan from the Federal Reserve, which is a privately owned Bank and the most evil institution ever created by human hands, they print it, its an overly complicated process, and there is only so much "Debt" the Federal Government is allowed to accrue.
they kick the can and up the Debt Ceiling basically yearly, and they use the debt ceiling increase as a wedge issue to get things w/e side has the position of power wants, its how they have slowly fucked us into the dirt.

Here we are, the Govt is shut down because they can't, and won't come to an agreement, because for the Dems, it behooves them to make the Repubs look bad by not taking any deal, simple as that, everything is "lets make working class people's lives agony so we can get a brownie point on the other side till they rise up and kill us all"

That is American politics.
 
Beef is ridiculous to be fair. My best suggestion is to get a Costco membership and buy lamb instead it’s like half as much
Head of beef cattle declined by 9.5% January 1 2021 - January 1 2025. 30.84 million head January 1 2021, 27.9 million head January 1 2025. An almost 10% decrease in supply will cause a large rise in price of any product all by itself. Add increased cost for fuel (transportation) and electricity (refrigeration) at the same time and you get ridiculous consumer beef prices
 
That may be true, but it doesnt make it less homosexual to join the military. Just get a normal job and contribute instead of being a government parasite.

How the fuck is joining the greatest force the world has literally ever seen homosexual?

Have liberals eliminated any sense of patriotism or are we just seeing the loudest faggots rise to the top of the pile?
 
Something I've noticed is that the same people who complain about EBT are typically also the ones who don't understand how it works.

You know why jobless Shaniqua gets more than some poor bastard that actually is employed? It's exactly because she doesn't have a job, and the other guy does. In the government's eyes, if that guy has a job-even if it's the worst paying job ever-he still has an income, and therefore shouldn't qualify for as much assistance as Shaniqua does because he theoretically has more money to already help him.

Furthermore, even if he does qualify for assistance, he's going to have to barely work at all, and keep them constantly updated with how much money he's making, or else he could lose all that help. It doesn't matter how much that guy is able to work, or even if he really wants to. If he does it, he'll be worse off than if he wasn't working.

Tl;dr: The system is fucked, and makes it so poverty, and unemployment are not just encouraged, but also tend to be needed to get by.
What I don't get is I have to work 30 hours to qualify for food stamps. The moment I lost my job, they're up my ass about "when you gonna start working. "

How the fuck can I cheat the system
 
People don't do it because they want to. It's either, they have to
Women don't start an OnlyFans because they're starving they do it because seeing that even 6 mediocre simps pay them 5 dollars a month is an ego boost that makes the fundamentally dehumanizing act of taking pictures of your pussy and tits for strangers worth it.

You could make that same amount of money working 1 hour of overtime a week at your job. But then you don't get the satisfaction of random men telling you how hot sexy you are.

Stop trying to spin the popularity of onlyfans as some sort of desperate hail mary to put food on the table.

You need to move. A loaf of value/store brand white bread in my area is a little under $2, local name-brand about $2.30, national name-brand slightly under $3 to $3.50, luxury brand about $4.50, organic whatever luxury brand $7.50
 
I got my grocery spend down to $100/month back a few years ago when I was shit broke in grad school. What’s preventing them from doing the same?
Even in current year I could do that, and not even resorting to bullshit like ramen noodles. Meal prep is a thing and definitely works. Sometimes I'll spend a month just on that and it's ridiculous how little you can spend on food if you put the slightest bit of thought into it. It's kind of fun sometimes to treat life like a resource management game with crafting options (which it is).
 
Canada not having a food stamps equivalent is fascinating.
Head of beef cattle declined by 9.5% January 1 2021 - January 1 2025. 30.84 million head January 21 2025, 27.9 million head January 1 2025.

Imports of Mexican beef have also collapsed due to screwworm risk in their cattle, so another major source also took a hit.

It's not that, I'm telling you. It's when you're at a place with 100 non speaking English illegals fucks that get ahead in line and walk away smiling and the black lady fights your claims.

That's what this is all about.
What this is about is Democrats think blacks will riot when it's cold, which isn't happening. I get your point, but I cannot fucking stand anyone who sucks the government teat and has the nerve to tell taxpayers what the score is. Even I'm not that obnoxious.
Nigga. I have a job. You're Canadian. You get healthcare for free. Fuck off
How humiliating it must be for people that a fat, loudmouthed Mormon who makes questionable dating decisions can hold a job and they cannot.

As a (former) Canadian: Most Canadians pay way more into the system than they get out. Most day to day stuff (prescriptions, dental, opto, ortho, etc..) are private and out of pocket.

Canadians don’t have any equivalent to food stamps. It’s git gid or go hungry. None of this subsidizing jobless niggers.

Blacks aren't, and weren't a force really. It's the millennial whites that pushed them into power. The women mostly, just look at that stats. This is all 30-50 then 65+ white women pushing this. Sorry. The black women are 100% lockstep too, but they're a small # overall.

Get a disability, the easiest one to give yourself is probably diabeetus- oh wait you can't get food stamps to get food to get diabeetus. Those bastards they've got it all figured out
 
Most people on EBT aren't buying high margin items with their EBT, I would guess most use it for staples.
Lmao what the fuck would make you believe that?

That's literally the shit people limited to their own money think. When they're spending everyone else's money they buy the worst shit imaginable.
It’s not actually cold yet in many places.
So riots in the south where the heat is still there to fuel the rage of largely endothermic ethnicities. We shall see.
