       DO NOT CELEBRATE THE DEBT CEILING “DEAL”Forcing cruel and unnecessary work requirements on an essential program that helps 42+ million Americans afford food is horrificMillions will lose that money and it will make the hunger crisis so much worse. It will also hurt the economy. It won’t help the fabricated “labor shortage”Without SNAP, my family, and many others, will struggle to find food. I guarantee food banks will empty FASTNEVER negotiate with terrorists#debtceiling #gop #politics

       @Chromino The damned thing needs to be eliminated. As soon as Nixon got off the Gold Standard and Quantitaive Easing began, the Debt Ceiling only has the purpose of imposing restriction on those least able to bear them. It’s a nonsense of a policy.
