Wisconsin GOP Passes Bill Banning Poor People From Buying Shellfish, Potatoes And Ketchup
This is horrifying and gross, because the list includes:
- Cranberry sauce and pie filling. (Poor people can forget about making dessert for Thanksgiving dinner.)
- Creamed vegetables
- Baked beans
- Pickles
- Pork and beans
- Frozen veggies that come in packages featuring pasta, nuts, rice, cheese, or meats
- French fries and hash browns
- Sharp cheddar cheese, Swiss, and fresh mozzarella, shredded and sliced cheeses (except American cheese of course), cheese food, spreads, and products. Even Kosher cheese is banned unless you apply to get a specific check for it which basically could identify who the poor Jewish people are. (This is really gross and skeevy because of how this is isolating Jewish people and outing them.)
- Canned peas and green beans
- Albacore tuna, red salmon, and fish fillets
- Bagels, pita bread, English muffins
- White rice and wild rice
- Taco shells
- Almond, rice, goat, and soy milk.
- Brown eggs and any eggs produced by cage-free or free range chickens, which basically helps corporate chicken farms
- Several kinds of infant food
- Anything in bulk
- Anything organic or natural
here’s the list, for anyone who’s skeptical like i am. it’s on a real-ass government-ass website. i am, tbh, disgusted.
Thanks for the link. That is horrifying and disgusting.
The list is actually worse- no peanuts, SEASONINGS, SOUPS, any canned beans, WHITE RICE, anything organic or natural, and anything like lactose free/kosher milk, or anything that might be necessary to a religious group or someone with conditions such as celiac or lactose intolerance basically have to fill out forms which singles them out based on health/religious reasons.
This is really, really gross.
Is it just me or did they basically rule out basically all the cheapest and easiest to prepare food? Because that is bullshit.
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
Isn’t that like.. all the food?? Wtf are people supposed to eat??
THE FUCK?????? HOW IS THIS REAL???
um, can i just…question?
WHAT THE SWEET FUCK IS A JEWISH PERSON SUPPOSED TO EAT IF THEY’RE ON FOOD STAMPS?
you can’t buy salmon, potatoes, fucking /bagels/, how the sweet fuck is anybody going to put together a fucking meal with this shit? i mean yes stereotypical food, blah blah, but seriously people. what the hell? i have had to put together three shivas in the past four months. do you know how many motherfucking vegetable trays and bagels and lox i have bought? so much. what would i have done if i was on food stamps? WELL IT LOOKS LIKE NOBODY AT THE HOUSE COULD HAVE EATEN. APPARENTLY YOU CAN’T BUY ANYTHING KOSHER EVER, unless you get a fucking WAIVER FOR IT, like you have to fucking REGISTER TO BE JEWISH, YOU FUCKING TERRIFYING MOTHERFUCKERS, I SEE YOU. I SEE. YOU.
I WILL FUCKING SALT THE EARTH OF THIS STATE WITH KOSHER SALT, SEE IF I FUCKING DON’T.
THIS LIST IS EVIL AND YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD.
also the restrictions on baby food are bullshit and you are STARVING POOR CHILDREN WITH THESE RESTRICTIONS fuck you SO HARD.
These people are literally elected officials and they think they’re doing the right thing. Fuck this backwards country.
my mom used to be on food stamps and literally this would be impossible to live on, like i wouldn’t fucking be here if the rules had been like this. it’s absurd that this is a thing, i cannot fucking believe people voted these people in and i can’t believe even further that this bill go passed. it’s fucking ridiculous.
