I find...

Eating on around $6 a day, (which is the full amount allowed) is more and more difficult because food prices are increasing steadily. When I had access to a kitchen to cook food I could stretch it, but it gets very thin rather fast and you skip meals or fast often.

When you don't have access to a refrigerator, stove and running water it is even worse and you can't buy any prepared hot foods, though they are not that affordable, (more of a luxury) and one cold sandwich takes most of your daily allotment.

Since it is not enough for an older adult to eat calories-wise, what a welfare luxury, huh? Why not take the food out of the mouths of children, seniors and the working poor? The expendable, useless eaters are not valuable.

Yet, the Trump supporters are probably going to feel this one if it goes through.

The Grinch is real and he is taking!
