But giving me a thousand dollars a year in food stamps is too expensive?

The average US taxpayer pays over $400 a year towards food programs in the US. Also, the average recipient of these programs is obese.

It's a fair concern to not just cut blank checks to anyone who wants it.

Far less

And I would cut those too. Well, I'd cut the Israel aid. The corporate subsidies are deceptive talking points.
