That means that roughly 42 million Americans will not receive critical food assistance
42 Million!! WTF!!
That’s about 15% of the population on food stamps!
I wonder how many of them have actual full time jobs, but aren’t paid a living wage?
Jesus Christ USA is a shithole country.
This is so sad, USA could be such a nice place, lots of space, lots of resources, several types of climate to suit any taste.
And USA is among the richest countries in the world.
And yet the American population chooses this?
I really hope something will happen to make Americans change their outlook on politics, towards something more socially responsible.
Here in Denmark we had a guy named Grundtvig, who in the 1800’s were a key figure to turn the Christian view away from the doomsday mentality towards a more humane and positive version of Christianity, in part by writing beautiful uplifting psalms.
I hope USA will see a similar influence on American society in general.

It’s worse than that because of how the poverty line is calculated based on the cost of food.
Sounds like a great plan, except that we stopped there.
Our poverty line is only calculated based on the cost of food. As is rent was free.
15% of our population couldn’t even afford food if they didn’t pay any rent at all.
Let that sink in and understand it’s not hyperbole when we say we are fucked.
