What does it matter to you what other people are eating? If they are given a specific budget via SNAP/foodstamps, it's fixed and how someone else spends what little is alloted to them is none of our business. They are going to get the same amount of money and what they choose eat will cost nothing more to taxpayers. If you choose to eat non-organic eggs or milk on your fixed income, great, do it. If someone else makes a different choice, then they should be allowed to do it. It makes no logical, rational sense to limit people's choices. The sad thing is that organic foods are not "fancy" they are more healthy and produced in a way that is less harmful to animals and the environment. Why should someone who is poor be forced to make unhealthy, inhumane choices?? Why do so many people lack compassion for the poor?
