I haven't seen anything about this but there was a literal #foodRiot in Union square the Friday before thanksgiving.

I heard about it the day after and posted

But I have an update on what happened and what I saw myself today

The Asian community has organized and they go up in large groups of 10 to 15 people and swarm the table some showing pictures of #EBT cards. All of them wearing masks and speaking in Chinese at the same time, trying to get the golden tickets.* My friend A. who has been working these markets for 20 years and has seen any number of things happen was very impressive shutting it down

But she said that 20k was cleaned out of her summer market last week in the bronx.

And other people are missing out there was a guy with only one hand who was getting his EBT tokens and she just kept on yelling no more money no more money and the Asian phalanx went away... But she slipped me 40 surreptitiously and I was able to give the guy 20.

You can't blame people that are hungry.. if the system is being taken advantage of it it's such a tiny scale compared to what's happening elsewhere that it's hard to even get upset about that it's just that there is a zero-sum game when it comes to #publicBenefits and is getting even worse as time goes on and anyway a lot of thoughts about this including issues of cultural insensitivity etc but I just wanted to put it out there because I don't know if anyone's talking about it and it feels pretty important

*This is in its way a precursor to #universalBasicIncome and this type of abuse is going to be what slows down it's adoption because people will say #corruption is inevitable (which it isn't: this is such a slapdash ad hoc situation in the first place I have to respect the organization, in the second place I do a version of it myself by going from market to market to market I stand out it's hard to miss me there's no way I could do this but they go around the corner change clothes cover their faces and then try to get the $20 over and over again

CNN: Here’s who stands to gain from the ‘#bigbeautifulbill.’ And who may struggle
#onepercent #trump
#medicaid #medicare
#EBT #Foodstamps

...The net income for the top 20% of earners would increase by nearly $13,000 per year, after taxes and transfers, according to an analysis of a near-final version of the Senate bill by Penn Wharton Budget Model.

That amounts to a 3% average increase in income for those households.

For the top 0.1% of earners, the average annual income gain would amount to more than $290,000, according to Penn Wharton.

Things looking up a tiny bit. After almost 4 months my #EBT card has finally arrived and I can get groceries.

I still have rent, medical bills, and lack of a winter coat to contend with. Still looking for a job, and waiting on my disability.

Coffee and Diet Cola and Little Debbie cakes would perform some psychic repair on me and I got my weekly SNAP benefits from Virginia's emergency funds, but it is barely above freezing outside right now and I'm just not willing to go walking to the store until it at least gets closer to 50 outside.

The ongoing government shutdown and the major cuts to SNAP are devastating, but community groups and state politicians are stepping up to fill some of the gaps.

These #maga #racists literally believed there was a "black version" and "white version" of these government services. They literally thought that #ACA and #Obamacare were different things. They actually think #SNAP and #EBT are different things... WTF... I would be shocked by the stupidity, but I know these morons... I grew up surrounded by them

> " If we are given the appropriate legal direction by the Court. "

Those were Donald Trump’s words after the courts ruled that SNAP (Food Stamps) had to be funded.

Let that sink in.

The courts had just given Donald Trump an appropriate legal direction to fund SNAP — and Trump acted as though he knew nothing about it.

I suspect that on Monday, the Trump administration will either appeal the ruling or continue to play dumb and ignore it.

Americans now blame Trump and Republicans for the shutdown by 14 points, up from 10 points last week.
Trump reaches his lowest economic approval in Navigator tracking since 2018.
OOOPPPs!

“They were careless people,” Fitzgerald wrote, “they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

More than 47 million Americans — including one in five children — don’t have reliable, affordable access to nutritious food. And as the cost of living skyrockets, more families are depending on SNAP benefits, or food stamps, to put food on the table.

Couldn't have said it better. PHAROAH FEED MY PEOPLE!!

How do I know all this?

Because during 2020–2022, when most people were dealing with the pandemic, job layoffs, cutbacks, and a recession, I was helping others.

I learned a lot and discovered just how easy it is to help a stranger. 💜

How to Help Someone — Without the Risk

4 of 4

Did you know that most medical debt collectors don’t care who pays, as long as the bill is paid?

You don’t need to know anything about the person or their condition — a simple generic bill number is enough to make a payment.

No middleman. The money goes straight where it’s needed.

Why am I on Mastodon? B/c the white Christian boy from the Bible belt never had to #resist anything.

We were in poverty, but my family gladly used #Section8 #Medicaid #Tenncare #FoodStamps #SNAP and #EBT

Now the #AmericanChurchTM hates the poor & I don't know how to #organize, subvert power structures or resist

So we'll learn from the #BIPOC and #Queer community & those who have spent time #protest ing & resisting

We'll figure out #Zines #mutualAid #bailfunds #harmreduction #directaction

An #idea to #solve something:

Pay all of the #drunks to stop drinking.
Pay all of the #addicts to stop using.

Check hair samples. FAIL? Pay it back #indentured

Real #money. Not some $275.00/ mo on an #EBT card.
$80k / year or so would prob be reasonable in 2025.
