Most states are unable (or unwilling) to raise funds to cover social welfare programs, so cutting federal SNAP funding will just create an enormous public health and social justice problem, with potentially disruptive consequences down the road.

If these yokels knew American history at all, they’d know that the number of starving, out of work people during the Great Depression was a big concern to all politicians. They feared socialism and communism, of course, but they also feared violent political unrest. Hoover did not really fathom the looming problem, but Roosevelt did.
