> consider that 20% of Americans are to some measure dependent on SNAP. There's something wrong with that in my view.
but what interpretation leads to "therefore SNAP is the problem" ? compared to land management or anti-trust, etc
as a policy alternative, we could say, ban the exports of alfalfa until the SNAP usage is 5%, and split up cisco into 2000 different food distribution companies.
funding for social spending i think is a very strong chesterton's fence, in that the program was introduced to mitigate a problem. getting rid of the mitigation isnt going to get rid of the underlying problem
