Cutting snap benefits will cause ripples across the land.

[Swede]

Not having SNAP benefits in November impacts everyone. This regime has ruined America. Every system we’ve come to rely on is broken because of Trump.

2. Those ripples will be dwarfed by the tsunami caused by eliminating the ACA and it's subsidies.

Everyone (including the billionaires) is going to experience a stunning increase in the cost, decrease of quality and availability of health care.

Paired with RFKjr’s gutting of the science based medical establishment, by this time next year, health care in the US will be at a level not seen since the 1950’s. If those cuts are allowed to stand.

3. My post was specifically about groceries.

People will go hungry, foodbanks will be overwhelmed. The costs will skyrocket, and everyone in the supply chain will also suffer. This is an immediate impact.

4. Yes, I am aware of that...

It’s all part of the the same coin. The SNAP benefits are also part of the social well-being and health of the American public. Good nutrition being one of the foundation stones that will be gone.

5. Spoken like someone who has never missed a meal

Only water and oxygen come before food

6. Quite the assumption there. n/t

9. Hugin was making a point about the larger disaster that is happening and meant no belittling of this disaster.

Disaster upon disaster is what the world is facing because of Trump and his goons. There is no need for us to fight amongst ourselves.

7. So food prices will rise to offset the lost sales

And I betcha those prices *never* go back down. Again.

8. Grocery conglomerates should be screaming about this

The lost revenue from EBT purchases will be ginormous, and there's no way they could raise their prices enough to make up for the loss

Something's weird about this

10. Oh yes, We can see that coming..

it's a Horrible Choice .. the Dems are holding out for the ACA, while shutting down the Government results in No SNAP Benefits for one important Service for the People.

11. No, ultimately the fault is with voters

If enough of them had voted for Harris, we wouldn't be going through this.
