    What if all the SNAP recipients had enough income to buy food without subsidies? Ik crazy idea. Paying them more would also be just as effective for “farmers” and the economy as spending whether private or government creates income.

    Also, capitalism has involuntary unemployment, there simply isn’t enough jobs for everyone to be employed no matter how hard an individual tries and no supply side bs like upskilling will fix that. Only a full employment policy can.

    And even voluntarily unemployed should be provided with food if they can’t afford it.
