“If they want to eat they should get a job!” “My taxes shouldn’t pay for people who aren’t productive” “It’s their fault they’re hungry” My latest is about the ‘useless eater’ rhetoric that has dominated social media ever since news broke that SNAP wouldn’t be funded in November. People are blaming individuals for what is clearly a society wide failure. Wealth inequality coupled with rising prices and falling wages mean millions rely on food assistance to survive. In three days, 42 million Americans will be without food. They will start to starve. No one deserves this.https://www.disabledginger.com/p/no-one-deserves-to-starve#uspol #poverty #foodassistance #snap #usda #fascism #disability #eugenics #ableism
