If Men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and the next place, oblige it to control itself. --James Madison

This Is Just To Say
I have eaten the plums that were in the icebox
and which you were probably saving for breakfast
Forgive me they were delicious so sweet and so cold

In a bid to save money and restrict benefits, the bill would make a series of changes to scale back the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, which provides monthly aid known as food stamps to about 42 million low-income people...
On Thursday, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office predicted the consequences could be substantial.
New work requirements, for example, could result in about three million SNAP recipients losing benefits, its analysis found. States could potentially leave the program because of their own budget constraints, further leaving some poor families unable to obtain nutritional assistance. And some proposed changes to the way the government computes benefits could leave some households facing losses in their monthly allowances.
Some Republicans from districts with high concentrations of food stamp recipients have balked in the past at cuts to the program, and insisted on allowing states to relax work requirements, which the bill would limit their ability to do. But so far, there has been no outcry in the G.O.P. against the SNAP cuts. --NY Times 5/23/2025
I don't understand. Why would there be an outcry about depriving children of food so that the wealthy among us can further fatten themselves?

It's fundamentally about light. The sooner you recognize this, the easier it gets.
