People are ra-tards and are gas lit very easily.

Soft drinks are about a $400B industry. SNAP money is around $14B/yr in soda purchases. Thus, SNAP is about 3.5%, roughly. Let's round up and call it 5%.

All you've done is make an argument for them to ban soda for everyone. If it's so bad, and the vast majority is non-SNAP, then why would you not ban it for everyone? If you talk about medical costs, the response will be that the govt tends to pay less when it covers Medicare / Medicaid bills. Then, you're advocating for federalized healthcare.

You are creating an argument against choice, against freedom, and in favor of more Big Brother controlling your life.


Freedom and Government subsidized freedom are two completely different things.

Or let's put it another way...

A bunch of people choosing to do something on their own, with their own resources and want is very different from a bunch of people incentivized and subsidized by the government to do something. This creates different levers and systems to support and perpetuate. If you can't see that I am sorry. It's true.

We all are a slave to 2 party. At this point to get stuff done you have to accept the extreme ends of each party

Actually the opposite. The parties being so shite is even more reason to vote third party. You accepting it and voting for R or D just encourages this.

Are you really going to act like it wouldn't be be an improvement for people on SNAP to eat real food (albeit of a quality that could be improved) instead of highly processed food (made from the same real food that has the impurities in it)?



She just might be that AWFUL

No the far flung 15% of either side are the reason everything sucks


The far flung is far more than 15% of the left and far less than 15% on the right.

I think there are a lot of conservatives and constitutionalists are concerned by the means in which ICE operates inside the borders of a sovereign country. There’s a thing in the constitution called title 12 that limits a military from operating inside the borders of the US. The “by any means necessary” mindset is playing with fire because undoubtedly the Dems will be in office one day and will have authority to fund their own federal militia. They’ll probably call it the the fricking “black panthers” and send them out collecting guns from the “facist whites.”


I don’t recall a time when either party funded a militia for anything. The concern in the country is what you stated in your first sentence.

The gathering of illegal immigrants and criminals isn’t the issue, it’s the method that made people think about events in history elsewhere that looked eerily familiar.

There’s a way to get things done without going completely overboard and involving legal citizens.

What is the specific method you object to?

When has this ever occurred? Legal citizens have been getting caught up with ICE for years and years.

It involves letting them do their job without being attacked by crazy liberals

There are more stupid people. People that think they are rewriting the script when they vote like you. You aint changing shite. Just messing it up by taking your own vote away. Maybe one day. But that ain't now.
