Why are so-called “work requirements” for government assistance so cruel?

Imagine:

Someone with a child is working a job paying poverty wages and uses SNAP benefits as a way to make ends meet.

They lose their job.

Now they no longer have an income or SNAP.

That doesn’t make any damn sense. What good is a social safety net that doesn’t catch people when they fall?!

Something tells me Jesus would *not* spend millions of dollars on Super Bowl ads to make fascism look benign

[Ben Rhodes @brhodes]

The strangest thing about this epoch of American history will always be that tens of millions of grown ups decided to form a cult like devotion to, of all available people, Donald Trump.

Today 43 Republicans voted to keep insulin at $1200/mo instead of $35. Tomorrow every Republican will ask you to be outraged that gas is $5 instead of $3.

In the GOP world, $1200 for life saving insulin in fair play but $5 for gas is an outrage.

Vote them all out.

RIP Paris Climate Accord and the decade that was meant for climate action. Island nations and the world’s poorest — I’m so sorry that we failed you.

Profoundly sad and scared. The U.S. is leading the world in global suicide. Joe Manchin (+ republican senators) you have blood on your hands.

[Daniel Boguslaw @DRBoguslaw]

NEW: At the same time he was sabotaging Biden's climate agenda, @Sen_JoeManchin and his wife directed over $15 million in federal funds to the pristine West Virginia valley where they own a vacation home. https://t.co/hCftZY7b3E

Happy “Independence” Day from me and my reproductive rights.

India is lining their canals with #solarpower. It provides #cleanenergy and stops water evaporation at the same time.

We have so many solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

SCOTUS is killing women.

No fireworks until every American is truly free

[Mohamad Safa @mhdksafa]

If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

[Bryan Behar @bryanbehar]

No offense, but there is no fucking way the ruling is 6-3 in favor if I started chanting my Torah portion on the 50 yard line.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

I don't know who the guy is but I like him.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

So, you’re telling me that teachers can’t talk about race, sexual orientation or gender, they can’t teach certain kinds of math or talk about slavery and they can’t even say the word “gay”… but they can lead their students in prayer?

Are you f*cking kidding me?

@RepCasten Donations were made to One Tree Planted and Earth Justice on Gwen’s behalf. I just graduated with a degree in environmental science and am heartbroken that she won’t be able to do the same. For her, I will fight the fight harder. Rest In Peace, Gwen 🌅

[Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten]

We are grateful to all who have reached out with thoughts, condolences and help. To all asking what they can do, we ask only that you live your lives as Gwen lived hers.

[Charles DeLoach @DeLoach_NC]

We need Democrats on every news channel across the country talking about abortion rights like this.

[eat soup @jasminericegirl]

if you actually cared about kids you should probably put more funding into schools, health care, shelters, foster care, and food programs, not force people who don't want kids to have them
