1. La Brecha Alimentaria: SNAP vs. Dietas Congresionales.
El punto central de la crítica es la enorme diferencia entre la ayuda alimentaria diaria promedio proporcionada a los beneficiarios de SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) y el estipendio diario que los miembros del Congreso reciben para comidas y gastos incidentales (per diem), a menudo superando diez veces el beneficio de SNAP.
- Members of congress get 79 a day for meals while snap recipients receive an average of 6.31 per day.
- Congress gets 79 daily food allowance. Snap, 6.15 daily food allowance.
- Members of congress get 79 a day for meals. Snap recipients? 6. But go ahead. Keep cutting benefits from the people who actually need them.
- Congressional members receive 79/per day for meals. Snap recipients receive six dollars per day. The mat isn't mathing. Cruelty and hunger are the inevitable result of these fat, overfed "representatives.".
- The federal governments per diem rate for dc is 92day. The maximum monthly snap benefit for the poorest individual is 298. That translates to 9.93day. For a family of 4, thats 8.28day. Congresspeople 92day poor people 9day.
2. Acusaciones de Crueldad y Doble Estándar.
La indignación se intensifica cuando los legisladores, que disfrutan de altos salarios y generosas dietas pagadas por los contribuyentes, votan para reducir o imponer restricciones a los beneficios de SNAP. Muchos exigen que los miembros del Congreso sean obligados a vivir con el presupuesto de SNAP para comprender la realidad de la inseguridad alimentaria.
- I want every member of congress to live on snap for two weeks before they vote to cut it. 6.00 a day to feed a family is nearly impossible, but it's all some families have.
- House republicans get a meal allowance of 79 a day and want to decrease the 6.00 a day that poor people recieve from snap.
- Republicans killed snap.which feeds hungry kids.for 6 per day while they get a daily stipend of 79 for meals.
- If congressmen getting 79 per day for food is considered reasonable allotment, so the same should be applied for snap. Theyre not hungrier or more worthy of it than anyone else.
- Apply snap rules to the 79 daily food allowance of congress. No hot food, no toilet paper, no alcohol, my snap benefit is 250 per month. Congress food benefit is 4,180 per month.
3. El Verdadero Costo de SNAP y la Vulnerabilidad Social.
Los comentarios resaltan que SNAP es un salvavidas crucial para millones, incluidos niños, ancianos y veteranos, y que el costo del programa para el contribuyente individual es mínimo en comparación con los gastos y beneficios del Congreso. Se enfatiza que la mayoría de los beneficiarios de SNAP son trabajadores con salarios insuficientes.
- Hungry children receive approx 6/day for food under snap. Rich members of congress receive 79/day for meals. Our politicians are greedy and immoral.
- 1.3 million us service members and veterans get snap also because the greedy sobs of the top 1 wealth hoarders refuse to pay americans a liveable wage.
- It cost the average taxpayer 36 a year in taxes to pay for snap benefits.
- About half of americans on snap benefits food aid work, just as half of americans who are homeless work. They dont earn enough.
- Members of congress get more welfare in a day than a snap recipient in a month. The house of representatives get a 79 per diem for food per member. Why are we paying to feed millionaires and letting the poor go hungry?
