Hopefully everyone sees that the best solution is worker control over the means of production. This is what always happens when that control is in the hands of owners:
Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.
The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.
They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.
Wanna fix fraud and abuse?
Fix that.

Great news, but see prev. post - AG Nessel highlights delay in SNAP assistance "I mean ... it just can't be done overnight, and that's why ...we really are going to have to rely on the food banks and the food pantries to cover the time period," Nessel said.
