No Food Stamps For Soda

I stand by my original post. You can agree to disagree...But realize they already disallow purchases of certain items from food stamps so simply bringing up this or that is besides the point. The food stamp law is clear that not everything is considered food.

I think its a great topic Randall and I really don't have a position one way or the other although I think that government is opening up pandora's box when it goes this deeply into regulating what food stamps can buy. The items that are currently prohibited are clearly defined and really no logical debate can be made. But this soda thing? Where do you draw the line? Are sodas bad but fried chicken is okay?? What comes next?

Well they are regulating just about every profession known to man. But when the deadbeats and retards fall under regulation all of the weak-kneed liberals strongly object to it.

They should let all of the weak people starve to death. 41 million Americans on food stamps and the majority of them don't give a f.uck what's going on in this country. All they care about is getting that check at the first of the month and their god-damned food stamps. And they are out-breeding the middle-class and rich at an alarming rate. It's not sustainable.

While I don't hate them, or want any human being to starve, I do think we should pay poor people to not have children. Right now, we pay them after they have children. Pretty stupid. I guess the problem would be people remaining poor so they could get paid to not have kids. That's still a much easier problem to manage than the one we have. See, I believe in Gov't actually trying to make a better society for all. Seems like most Liberals just want to give out money, and not make sure it's well managed (to obtain important favorable results.) I want to spend money in a way that results in us having to spend less money in the future. Don't get me wrong, nobody should be kept from having kids, but there should be incentives encouraging poor people to refrain from having kids they'll struggle to provide for. Lets say a poor woman has a kid (even though she would have been paid not do.) You know what happens next? She needs help. Where should that come from? Her sister's check (for not having babies while poor.) Watch this video. Keep track of the guy's constant message: 2 for 1..2 for 1..incentivize..incentivize....
