That was an idea Congress nixed leaving it out of a 5 year Farm Bill that Trump signed into law. The 400 billion law reauthorized agriculture and conservation programs and left the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program that serves 44 million untouched. He announced this signing at a ceremony that he wants Americans to go from "dependence to independence" and from "welfare to gainful employment, strengthening families and uplifting communities" SNAP is the largest single expense amounting to more than 70 billion as the USDA proposed a rule that would limit how state governments grant work exemptions to adults. 18-49 year olds without kids are required to work 20 hours a week to maintain these benefits as the house bill would have raised the age of receiptients subject to work requirements from 49 to 59 and required parents with children older than 5 to participate in job training. It also limits circumstances where families that quality for other poverty programs can automatically be eligible for SNAP and since these didn't make it to the farm bill, the Trump administration went for a regulatory approach in scaling back the program as Texas Repubilcan, Michael Conaway was the champion of this tightening Senator Debbie Stabenow blasted the decision to restrict the program who said "This regulation blatantly ignores the bipartisan farm bill that the president is signing today an disregards over 20 years of history giving states flexibility to request waivers based on local job conditions. I expect the rule will face significant opposition and legal challenges" Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi also blasted this who said is the definition of cruelty and tweeted government should help hungry americans and not take away food. Florida Republican Ted Yoho said he is a former SNAP recipient and said "Work is empowering" and Republican Scott DesJarlais said the vast majority of americans said people should work if they want food stamps in the "growing economy" Only states that have an unemployment of 7% or higher will get waivers as conservatives celebrated the decision but is met with criticism that said will leave vulnerable families hungry.

The only real changes are raising the age limit on those able bodied adults, increasing the age limit on their children to qualify for waivers from working, and limiting the ability for states to set their own requirements regarding waivers within the former federal guidelines (as those guidelines would change). BTW, it always strikes me as odd that folks dont seem to know that theres been work requirements for SNAP for years now.

This is what I'd like to see also, a bill that guarantees everyone on food stamps a job but it won't happen. Besides what about people who already have a job but are still getting food stamps because they don't earn enough?

In denver you cant go 5 blocks before seeing at least 1 vagrant and at least 20 help wanted signs. Fuck, its not at all uncommon for them to beg outside a building next to a sign hanging in the window or posted on the lawn. Weve got more jobs than people here,and a lot of places are so desperate they will literally hire anyone. They make more money off of suckers and get more free shit when they stand on the corner than they would working, so why would they work? Its a perfect example of why socialism is dumb, and how you are only enabling self destrucive behavior by giving these fuckers free shit for no work. How many have untreated severe mental health issues? I really dont give a fuck how bad they chose to fuck their lives up, so thats gonna be a big fucking shrug from me. Nice to know that schizophrenia is a choice now? bro, when you were in school, how many fingers were you taught a person has on each hand. 5 right? but you do know that there are people born with fewer and sometimes even more right? but youre taught 5. why is that do you think? could it be because anything other than 5 isnt the norm, and is a statistical outlier? if you honestly think the majority of bums out there suffer from some sort of debilitating mental condition youre an idiot. ive lived on the streets. ive spent time with these people. I know their fucking attitudes and I'll tell you right now their attitudes are shit. the vast majority of them are able bodied people who realized they can get by without working. are there statistical outliers? sure. but you arent taught that people have 0-6 fingers on each hand in school. youre taught 5 because 5 covers the majority of all humans. im all for taking care of the mentally disabled. that and children are about the only people i want any sort of government funding to go to. but like i said, if you honestly believe that is anything other than a tiny minority of homeless you are just dumb. thats all. Mental health issues impact the homeless community at a rate which far exceeds that of the general population.

BUMPED2002 12/24/18 1:04:24 PM #50:	The GOP since Reagan has been on this "workfare" agenda since the 1980s so it's nothing new and it's steeped in racism because prior to the passage of the Voting and Civil Rights Acts of the 1960s, non Whites could not participate in Government welfare programs namely FDR's New Deal of the 1930s which gave us (Social Security, Job Insurance (Unemployment), Minimum Wage and FHA low interest government backed home loans which is what allowed working class people to buy family homes beginning in the 1930s and 1940s. Prior to that time, no working class people in America owned their own home because banks would not loan money to working class people regardless of color/race. When FDR guaranteed the banks would get their money if they loaned money via FHA loans, they were willing to do so knowing the full weight of the federal government would guarantee repayment of any FHA loan that was in default. Fast forward to the 160s when non Whites began gaining access to government programs and suddenly White folks had an issue with them especially after the "Southern Strategy" in which Richard Nixon began recruiting former racist Southern Democrats into the GOP because they were upset at the passage of the Voting and Civil Rights Acts and that's the GOP we have seen and witness today that emerged from the 1960s. The Southern Strategy is a Republican Party electoral strategy meant to increase political support among White voters in the South by appealing to racism against African Americans. <cite>BUMPED2002 posted [p:914646251] in Trump sign...
