Yeah when the US takes its boot off the Middle East and a new caliphate forms bringing Sharia law to Canada, you'll care
When China invaded Tibet they forced monks to rape and kill eachother Then there's the Japanese pillaging of China Russias enforced famine of Ukraine
That doesnt happen out here for a reason (the US military)

Dear whoever the fuck I'm replying to,
I see that you still haven't wrapped your head around the fact that I post about America a lot. For some reason, you find this annoying and I understand. You also have to understand that America is a country of influence on this planet and that everything that many things that happen can affect the rest of the world. Canada is you direct neighbor, we share a continent together and we are each other's biggest ally. Therefore, it is in my own interest to be interested in your affairs. Sure, I'm more interested in US affair than most Canadians and possibly most Americans. I'm also interested in the UK, France and Germany. As you may suspect, nothing ever happens in Canada because we got our shit together and it's almost boring.
Now wrap around around this shit and deal with it. Thank you
Sincerely Patlal

You clearly have no idea how America really works. You think it is like Canada only interesting, but we also have more intelligence and integrity.

Rice and corn are mostly empty starches and sugars, so should people on food stamps have food items like that banned as well? I don't think so. They're probably a little bit more healthy than a bunch of refined sugar and unnatural chemicals. Anyway, the real issue is that I should be getting some free food too. I'm stretched thin on bills and I actually contribute to society through my taxes. It's kinda shitty that people who get more free shit than me contribute less to nothing. I don't think I like socialism, but I do like free stuff.
USA #1
You could probably get them. I was on them once after I lost a job. I don't remember all the requirements anymore, but my friend who had a low paying job had them.
I think it's a pretty good idea to cut junk food off EBT eligibility. It's not really food anyway.
Apparently I make way too much money to apply, even though I don't really make much. I want my free steak NOW. This socialism stuff is bullshit. If I can't get free shit then nobody should, damnit.

I think it is a great idea, but I think the fines are a terrible idea. Nobody on food stamps is going to be able to pay $1000 and they would just end up costing the taxpayers more by being in jail.
They should get a warning the first time, lose their benefits for a month the second time, and lose benefits for a year the third time. Something like that.

In my state they almost passed a law that would have made it illegal to buy steaks, seafood, and expensive cheeses/produce with food stamps which is like the opposite of what is being proposed here.

With the internet and relatively cheap shipping we have (or at least cheap in comparison to the prices we already pay for at the grocery store.) Why the hell don't they set it up like a diet plan? Like you go online and select your food items/meals/whatever and they ship it to you. This would also help disabled people who have a hard time leaving home. It would also help people make more conscious decisions and not advertising based impulsive ones.

Then they could be signature only deliveries, 2x monthly or something.
People steal packages anyways so it is smart to know when your stuff is being delivered and keep and eye out for it.
