1 I'm not paying for a damn thing,'' said another.

He's not paying for anything with SNAP either, so there's really no difference.

3 Only about 10% of SNAP recipients are not US citizens based on government statistics. 30% are white.

There is always a juggling game with stats. In this case, one of the games might be that a citizen may be the person drawing the benefit but the qualifying folks may be non-citizens. That’s just a guess. There are probably also games with respect to where different ethnic groups are included. For instance, are Palestinians and Afghans listed as white or Asian etc..

13 Future news: Major retailers, led by Walmart, implement refundable cover charge amid doubling of security staff.

14 Walmart already employs worker who fill order requests from the store shelves. They and other retailers just need to go full implementation. A customer service area where the customer uses a kiosk to identify what they want, ring up the bill, and then a 'filler' will gather the goods to be transfer to the purchaser at the customer service area. It's that or many more food deserts.

15 I saw an assertion that roughly 20% of the food benefits we're talking about here go to citizens of this country.

The other 80 percent goes to illegals, those here on visas, and those here on refugee status. I wish "our" side did a better job of explaining to the 20% why so many of us have a problem with "their" benefits.
