The SNAP/EBT issues? Not a new problem just poorly executed by bureaucrats making it a trap.

How does SNAP/EBT become a trap? Do an undercover check and just apply to go through the interview process and get the documentation given those who do recieve benefits. The hidden side of SNAP/EBT benefits themselves? A person can purchase ANY food bearing type of plant or seed, but the information gets buried in the pamphlet toward the back, government personnel in the program don't always point that information out, often not having information on local community gardens which can be used, nor provide reminders from just before the planting season begins to help those people budget out to prepare for longer term and self renewing food supplies, and that is generally the issue at the state levels. Local and county governments have consistently failed in helping by eliminating areas that can be used for such, with Public Housing, parks, amd even the ornamental spaces along roads by requiring use of ornamental plants in which they irrigated while disregarding potential use for food bearing ones with excuses and disregard for their poverty level citizens and complain about the nutritional deficiencies that exacerbate the medical issue those deficiencies cause so they complain about the lack of medical abilities for those areas. To really drive the fact home in hoping people actually start attending their local meetings and demand repairs and changes, here is a major contention area and even proof of existing regukation that would help alleviate some of it that those idiots you vote into the council have outright ignored.... School Meals.. Where is the issue? Well, sure seems off that the USDA has had a Farm to School Meals Program and a previous infrastructure bills that does fund greenhousing for schools to teach the skills and help offset those funding needs for nutrition, while helping in other areas like Food Banks. #WhenSNAPStops #SNAPInterrupted #SNAPLife #SNAPBenifits #GovernmentShutdow

What do you do when the ability to feed yourself, your children, your family is abruptly lost? I understand the need for more accountability from people who receive benefits however removing those benefits with no warning, no time to plan, with an economy that is already making day to day living difficult if not impossible is not only wrong but I would go so far as to say it’s VILLIANOUS! The current climate of this country is focused on “Christian Values” supposedly. In stark contrast to those values are the actions that these “Christians” deem correct and just. Christ’s teachings encourage charity, love, grace, and mercy. Yes the desired result is self-sufficiency but even the Bible says to TEACH people HOW to fish. You don’t just throw them out there with no support and say, “Figure it out!!” This once great nation was a country that showed compassion, understanding, tolerance, and support to everyone even those who were alien to us. We had strong alliances and were thought to be the template for how a country should be. We are now looked on with disgust, ridicule, and dare I say hate. It’s not the President’s fault. At least not all of it. It’s the citizens of this country who are not only allowing these things to occur, but who are also praising the misery and despair of their fellow citizens. It’s a sad state of affairs when the least among us, the children, the elderly, the sick, the homeless, and the veterans are looked upon as “mooches” who don’t deserve benefits. This country has truly lost its way and I’m afraid it won’t be able to fix what has been so severely damaged. It’s not a party issue. It’s a PEOPLE, constituency, citizen issue. Don’t forget that but for the grace of God, it could have been you! #WhenSNAPStops #SNAPInterrupted #SNAPLife #SNAPBenifits #GovernmentShutdown
