NEW: A $1 MILLION DOLLAR SANCTIONS order against Felon Trump & parking lot lawyer, Alina Habba, has been upheld by a federal appeals court.

“Walmart was the top employer of SNAP recipients in five states and one of the top four employers in the remaining four states. McDonald’s was among the top five employers of Medicaid enrollees in five of six states and SNAP recipients in eight of nine states.”

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

SNAP is not just for the unemployed.
It’s for anyone who’s living below the poverty line, which sadly includes a lot of people who are working full time jobs.
But here’s the thing… even if it were “just” for the unemployed… they still deserve food!
No one deserves to starve.
