I was just arguing with my mom about this and she said it’s good people are losing the benefits because she knows people don’t need SNAP, despite needing them herself.
She then went on to name a few people who receive $800 for their 5 kids and simply sell the card to someone else to get cash for drugs and ask me how to solve that problem.

That problem is easy to solve. Just stop telling that lie, because that’s the only way that situation exists. It’s a complete MAGA fantasy.
And if your mother gets SNAP, and is happy it’s gone, remember that about three weeks from now, when she’s begging you to buy her groceries. If you buy her anything, make it a big pack of ramen, and a couple of tins of sardines.
perhaps worth pointing out too… focusing on the minimal abuse as a reason the whole program should be cut is very american. i think the rest of the world the attitude is much more that a thing is necessary and abuse is a cost of doing business (like shoplifting: just because there’s some shoplifting doesn’t mean you close the whole store)… it’s very much nobody “undeserving” should get rewarded before people need help

Reporting the abuse it wasn’t an option.
