1. La Amenaza de Hambre Masiva y la Escala del Impacto.
La principal preocupación es la magnitud del sufrimiento por hambre que se espera, comparado repetidamente con la Gran Depresión. Se estima que más de 40 millones de personas, aproximadamente 1 de cada 8 estadounidenses, dependen de SNAP para su alimentación, y la pérdida de estos fondos se considera una catástrofe humanitaria.
- If the snap program shuts down, we will have the most mass hunger suffering weve had in america since the great depression.
- 1 in 8 americans relies on snap.
- 42 million americans will go hungry in a weeks time. This is a forced famine on americas poor and vulnerable by the trump regime.
- I think we need to talk more about snap being cut from all funding. 42 million people rely on food stamps to live. This genuinely could be by some estimates, the most deadly famine in human history.
2. Poblaciones Vulnerables Afectadas.
Los recortes de SNAP impactan desproporcionadamente a los grupos más vulnerables de la sociedad. La mayoría de los beneficiarios son niños, ancianos, veteranos y personas con discapacidades, así como trabajadores que, a pesar de tener empleo, no ganan lo suficiente para cubrir sus necesidades alimentarias básicas.
- Most of those who use snap are children, older americans, veterans, people with disabilities, and working people.
- 40 of snap benefits go to children. Thats 20 million kids. Pushing them into starvation is sick.
- Snap feeds more than 40 million americans—mostly children, seniors, and working families.
- 1 in 5 children in the us relies on snap for their nutrition.
3. Crueldad Política y Consecuencias Sociales.
La interrupción de los beneficios es percibida como una táctica política cruel, especialmente al coincidir con la temporada navideña. Esto no solo amenaza la seguridad alimentaria, sino que también ejerce una presión insostenible sobre los bancos de alimentos y aumenta el riesgo de inestabilidad social y delincuencia.
- Cutting food support to make a political point is cruelty.
- Snap benefits have currently been held hostage by congress not going to point any fingers. People are coming to a point where, due to their economic status, they will no longer have access to food of any type.
- For every one person a food bank feeds, snap feeds nine. Food banks are not prepared for the influx thats coming when snap is cut off.
- If the snap benefits dont come through on november 1, we maybe moving to the literal eat the rich portion of this program.
- If snap is not funded saturday, the us will likely see an uptick in shoplifting and misdemeanor theft. When food stamps go away, parents will do whatever they can to feed their families.
- When you take snap away, the implications are cataclysmic, feeding america ceo claire babineaux-fontenot said.
