Poors are seriously the most bitter about other people getting help. "If I can do it, they can do it." Only the weak need to control other people's economic security like that. I'm really just pissed that so-called intelligent social commentators believe this BS. If it's some intersection of condishuns, fucking say it. Don't say it's so common sense that produce is more expensive when it's not.

It's not. Prepackaged meals and meats are the most expensive. The only issue I had with fresh produce when I was on food stamps was shelf life. So unless I could cook it that week I didn't buy it, I bought frozen instead. Sweet potatoes last forever, as do carrots. Heads of romaine last way longer than the bagged stuff, and the bagged baby carrots are tasteless compared to real ones. Fats only want convenience, and can't fathom doing any work for themselves even if it's minimal compared to the alternative. The fat cashier that made a remark about my steak probably thought I was feeding my kids sandwiches while I had steak, I doubt she could comprehend that it was a part of a meal because chopping meat is work.
