(13,487 posts)A majority of the money will go to the for-profit businesses that package and mail the foods. Plus the foods will need to be nonperishable, which means they will be heavily processed and unhealthy. So with this plan, the poor get less food that is just as unhealthy as what they buyall to profit the friends of Trump.
