That’s absolutely true. Im not insinuating that snap was the reason inflation was high. However the cuts to snap absolutely had an affect on the prices of certain things. Soda and chips were the most obvious. I don’t have a problem with snap as an idea. However the way it’s implemented is stupid. Not to mention it does nothing the solve the issue. Instead of giving money to corporations (which is basically what snap does) the government should be forcing them to pay livable wages or be creating affordable housing so people don’t need to choose between food and rent.

Story of my life
Another thing people don’t mention is their job. Most of the time they’re working remote so they’re still benefitting from their American pay. I had an acquaintance who lived in China for a year because he wanted to find himself or something. He said most of the apartments look like concrete boxes and their is barely any hot water.
