Do not watch Bones tonight while eating.
The meat industry will not benefit from this episode's start. No one would want to be eating meat while watching it.
Gah.
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Getting poor people more access to a wider variety of food really doesn't seem like a problem to me. Not everbody considers meat, cheese, and eggs akin to cigarettes. A fresh produce supplement would likely be welcome to consumers and producers as well.

Because books.
Yeah, that was pretty foul.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Wider variety sounds good. But this isn't a wider variety, it's extra money that can only be spent on specific things. And the things that it can be spent on are also the things that are already heavily represented in WIC and school lunches and other programs like that.

I'm watching Bones in HD. That was not a scene that needed the HD.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
This doesn't surprise me - the original purpose of the food stamps program was to help the agriculture industry, nsm to feed poor people. This is just government cheese with a new logo.

Ahahaha! Everyone else is as scarred as me.
OK, the product placement for a movie is ANNOYING AS FUCK.

Yeah, I added that additional money for fresh produce would be good for producers and comsumers too.
And it IS wider variety. When you have more money for food you can get a wider variety of food. When you have more money for meat, you can get less fatty meat. It's more money for poor people to eat better. That's a good thing.

Yeah, same with a lot of the foreign food aid, which has totally screwed up the agriculture (particularly dairy) industries in a lot of developing countries -- we produce too much dairy, give it to those countries as food aid, and the price of the milk reconstituted from American milk powder is so much cheaper than local milk that the local dairies end up going out of business, so that there's no chance of rebuilding the local agriculture to the point where they don't need food aid anymore.
