      Welfare for people in need has to be as difficult and painful as possible. Corporate handouts don’t need any of that. /s

      Nah, this is just good people doing good things for other people in need.

      I can actually see how you might think it’s a boring dystopia, but this is just how we live where I’m from.

        The American welfare system is byzantine, unfair, corrupt, and ineffective. People need this workaround on cooked food because there are irrational, pointless restrictions on what kinds of food people can buy with EBT. That’s the dystopia part.

        It’s awesome that good people do good things to fix the problems caused by a dystopian system. But if the system wasn’t broken, they wouldn’t have to.
