Talk about cruel and unusual. The state of Iowa is trying to adjust its snap benefits program. No fresh meat, No sliced cheese and no refined beans.

My first thought was that they wanted to screw people over who lived in food deserts, but they banned fresh meat.

Guess they don’t want to support the farmers anymore



Both sides

The hate for the poor in this country. Its mindblowing.

Imagine telling people they can't eat fresh meat.

Scheetz counters that it’s the federal government, not Iowa, who pays for 100% of SNAP’s food assistance costs. The federal and state governments split SNAP’s administrative costs 50/50, so all the administrative work it would take to implement the bill would theoretically only increase costs for Iowa, according to Elzinga.

Iowa is like 88% white so all those poor whites who voted for Republicans are getting a poor cac wake up call.

They’ll still vote for Republicans because the border something something CRT.

Poor and middle class whites are such an obstacle to progress
