This benefit supplements low-income individuals food purchases; it rarely covers all purchases. Many of these people live without transportation or opportunities to shop at true grocery stores. Convenience stores with limited (generally unhealthy) substitute. They may live without access to refrigerators, ovens, or stoves. Purchases are often constrained by environment and circumstance as well as economics and finally, choice.<br /><br />I am fine with eliminating corn-syrup/sugar sweetened soda as a purchase. There seems a product that can be easily distinguishable by all. Wisconsin is unlikely to get approval for a voucher to implement any similar bill. Unless Kaufert and Vos's true goal is to rid ourselves of the federal funding and to decimate the Foodshare program. We hurt our most vulnerable: children, the elderly, disabled, and the impoverished first.<br /><br />Aren't these the same people/parties who claimed we were loosing liberties with healthier school lunches and limited vending machine options within schools? <br /><br />We need to promote positive, healthy food choices and opportunities to purchase these foods. This is not part of a liberal agenda, just a desire to create a healthier citizenry with decreased healthcare costs. We do not need further stigmatization, judgment, and restriction from a party that claims to prioritize freedom and liberty.

Strictly speaking, any overly-processed food product could be considered "junk", which would cover about 90% of the American diet. Who determines what is "junk"? It will probably be the person running the checkout and so it will be an arbitrary process that will throw a little more humiliation on low-income people, and that's the whole point. Republicans like to build up their self esteem by dumping on other people.<br /><br />BTW Doesn't "Shorty" Vos make a living selling junk food?Garethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-26802729141176230262013-05-01T09:52:22.827-05:002013-05-01T09:52:22.827-05:001. have you ever shopped in a grocery store? jun...1. have you ever shopped in a grocery store? junk food is so much less expensive than the good stuff. If you only want them eating good foods, then up the ante and/or make the good stuff less expensive. <br /><br />Yes he wants to tell them what and when they should eat. Thats BIG BIG government. <br /><br />2. People would love to get off Food share, unfortunately for them we have a republican controlled state so we are bleeding jobs. Hard to get your own money when we are losing hundreds of jobs by the day. <br /><br />3. yes part of their job where they are doing part time work with full time pay. Is &88/day part of their compensation of course because they set their own compensation. You all pissy with the false meme that teachers unions run the schools yet they dont make anywhere near the money the legisaltors make.
