Let's help Clay out here with some math.
The $4200/yr. is for a household. Average SNAP household has 1.9 people. So that's $2210/person.
$2210/year is $184/month, and that's a little over $6. per day.
Clay, let's see you stockpile groceries on $6/day.
Hell, let's see you eat on $6/day.

In case anyone was wondering, “Give us your land or we will bomb you and take it” is not a peace deal; it’s extortion by artillery. A peace deal requires consent.

The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, responds to Donald Trump calling him a horrible mayor:

Mockler: They say that they oppose it at a 79% rate, 61% of them feel less safe… So the question that I then want to ask is, why don't we mobilize the National Guard to the eight out of ten red states that are the highest homicide states?

Jessica: Before this deal, we essentially were paying 1% on imports with the EU. 15% is more than 1%. I wish Gasparino was sitting here to explain to Jesse how tariffs work because it is a tax on the consumer.

Government leaders not knowing or willfully ignoring how tariffs work and who pays them is pretty funny.
Either corporate profits/margins get massacred or consumers eat higher prices.
The impacts are so bad.
