I realize this vote is almost over, but I would like to mention a quick note and will certainly bring it up when it comes up in the house.
My mom, having had a lot of experience being on Food Stamps, was always keen to comment that prepared food is not covered, and there is no program that ensures year round access to electricity. So if you are dirt poor and don't have power, or if homeless and lack access to a stove. how are you suppose to cook the food that SNAP covers?
Now the one downside of prepared food is that it is much more expensive and means that a given amount of food stamps will pay for a good number fewer days worth of food.
