This link proves the following claims true

1) The Biden administration is all about taking money from hard-working people and giving it to people who don't work.

2) The Biden administration is responsible for this inflation

so how am I voting against my own interests again?

Your own linked study indicates that the increase in food stamps may have contributed as much as 3 percentage points of the 15% increase in food prices.

That doesn't sound nearly as impressive as the phrasing in the Fox News article you liked to. Try rereading the article and removing all superfluous adjectives. That's a good method regardless of source, by the way. If an article relies on adjectives to make its point instead of actual facts, that's a big red flag.

Obviously, any increase in money to "the people" contributes to inflation. That's just the way it is. Cut taxes? Yeah, that increases inflation.

The only way to cut taxes and not increase inflation is to only cut taxes for the very rich, since they tend to not increase their spending as much.

With regards to SNAP (food stamps), it's worth noting a few things:

If food prices increase by 15% and you don't increase SNAP, guess what? That group is going to have a much tougher time putting food on the table.

Two thirds of SNAP recipients are children, elderly, or disabled. The vast majority of the rest actually work. Some full time, some in seasonal jobs, some that get their hours cut temporarily. Common to all is that they are paid so little that handling periods of even lower (or no) income just isn't possible. Many also don't have paid sick leave, which leaves them without income in the event of injury or sickness.

Are there moochers? You bet, and although I'd love to get rid of those, just making things worse for the VAST majority who really need it isn't a compromise I'm personally willing to make. That's just not the kind of society I think we should be pushing for.

D4L, I don't know if "I told you too many people are eating!" is the epic own you seem to think it is.

There are two problems with the title.

1. You are wrong.

2. The word "again" implies that you have right in the past.

Locked for improper title.
