We have the financial means to feed all the hungry people in the United States.
I will NEVER understand why many of you voted to punish the poor, the elderly, the disabled, the sick, and the hungry.
In Iosco County, we have a little over 25,000 residents and about 20% of them rely on SNAP, which is the Bridge card. That Bridge card allows those who are hungry to eat.
Other facts (Katie Phang)
- 86% of all SNAP benefits go to households that include a child, an elderly person, or a person with disabilities
- 40% of SNAP recipients are children
- 1.3 million recipients are active duty service members and veterans
I don't give a shit about how people with a Bridge card spend their money. Children deserve a birthday cake, people deserve celebration and happiness, and I will happily pay taxes so everyone can experience some joy.
And if you have an issue with this, that's on you. Just tell me you don't go to church on Sundays because that just screams hypocrite to me.
