Then they spend their money on hookers and blow, and then come back saying they have no money to buy food. Do you let them starve then?
-
No. When the corporations ruin the entire economy and say they don’t have any money we also bail them out.

Okay... so let's stop doing that...
But if we aren't letting hookers and blow guy starve, how are we doing that?
(a) give him more money, so he can spend it all on hookers and blow again and come back, still hungry, asking for more money.
(b) ask him what food he wants, and give him that. He says he only wants to eat lollipops. We give him endless lollipops - he is no longer technically starving to death, but is now slowly dying of nutrient deficiencies.
c) some how, some way, choose what he should eat for him, and give him that, so that he will be somewhat healthy.-
I think you’re beating up a straw man here….
Welfare is a couple hundred dollars at most, usually much less than that.
Stop worrying about what everyone else is eating and worry about yourself.
If you want to make products healthier on a larger scale, then pass regulations concerning toxic chemicals and labeling for food products.
Limiting people in literal poverty from having a lollipop or a candy bar with their money is not the answer.

This is 100% not a straw man. Poor people do stupid shit to fuck up their health and waste public money all the time. I know them - they're my family. The only problem is that they aren't quite poor enough to be on food stamps, despite trying their damnedest to get there. And so they keep eating themselves to an early grave, because they are stupid motherfuckers who refuse to accept reality or change in any way.

You can be a totalitarian in your imagination I guess.
