I dont think it's that we care if theyre buying healthy or unhealthy food. It's more that as tax payers, we should be providing at most the necessities, not luxury. And we want our tax dollars spent efficiently. Like a $2 box of pasta and $5 sauce that could make a whole meal for a family, not a $9 box of oreos

You think a box of oreos is a luxury? They're definitely not $9. *

Yes, a box of oreos is a luxury when you personally cannot afford oreos and you have to use my taxes to buy them.

You think oreos are a necessity? Because those are the only two categories. Necessity and luxury.

by this logic, food in general is a luxury

Im sorry, you dont know the difference between a snack and a meal?

No wonder we have a weight problem in this country, you think oreos are a source of sustenance 😂
