So we were talking about SNAP, and it's horrifying to think, like Alex Jones says, that we might be like

less than a few weeks away from basically a bugaloo, a purge, an astroturfed mass riot event.

And I hope that that doesn't happen.

But the part about this whole Snap debacle that is gross to me is how much corporate welfare it is.

People don't know this, but 25% of all Snap spending goes to Walmart.

It's like 5% or 6% of their U.S.

store's revenue.

It's a massive thing for them.

And so if they lose this, it could be existential.

They might actually have to fire some of their super high-priced Indian H-1B engineers if that happens.

And people have estimated that Coca-Cola, between 10% and 25% of their U.S.,

It's hard to know.

They don't report it.

It's also from Snap Dollars.

There's this really good story in The Guardian.

People should go check it out.

The title is Inside the Republican Network Behind Big Soda's Bid to Pit MAGA Against the Make America Healthy Again Movement.

And this summarizes everything that's happened back in March when everybody realized there were big Twitter accounts like Clown World that sold out and took money from Influenceable to talk about how great it is that Donald Trump had a big Diet Coke button on his desk.

And because of that, people who have transfer payments taken from me at the point of a gun are allowed to buy a luxury good when I'm trying to afford luxury goods for my kids, right?

So does a luxury good.
