Question of support

Who do Democrats support?

According to an article in this paper the new farm bill raises food assistance to 84 percent of the measure’s total budget. Food assistance programs fund SNAP, WIC, and school lunches.

The rest goes for salaries, agricultural programs and food safety.

As inflation and the cost of food continue to rise, I noticed something. I wasn’t sure so I started paying attention and asked other people I meet if they noticed the same thing. They did. While taxpayers cut back and struggle to make ends meet, it seems many people with overflowing carts of groceries are using government-issued SNAP or WIC cards to pay. As the cost of feeding a family takes a larger chunk out of family budgets, the only people that seem to be able to afford food are those government debit-card holders. Considering our borders and millions of illegal aliens crossing it, it would seem a huge pile of that farm bill budget is spent on illegal aliens. Who do Democrats really support?
