Due to the lack of financial stability with in the US government, we the people propose a rework of the food stamp program as a way to cut needless expenditures. We propose an allowance of only foods that the FDA and USDA labels healthy and nutritious. The program will exclude items such as sugared beverages, potato chips, candy/sweets, packaged snack items (I.E. trail mix, beef jerky, etc.) and certain frozen entrees that do not offer substantial nutritional benefits (I.E. pizza, tacos, etc.) The idea of government assistance to those who need it will use it for temporary help and eventually will deem it unnecessary to receive government assistance once that person is able to provide for themselves again and not depend on it forever.
