SNAP

Brilliant coach says "You feel a loss more than a win." Duh!  The fog of those brilliant athletic minds blows my way each day over the radio.  Believe me, I would not feel the loss of SNAP,  the government's food supplement program. Its elimination would free up billions of dollars not to be redirected or repurposed by government.  Money would be returned to the taxpayers who have paid for some to eat better than others. Those who watch the outlay of their pocketbooks are losers.  This is a time of credit and debit cards, absence of cash purchases and repudiation of saving pocket change.  This is a time of  watching a SNAP recipient buy the bacon-wrapped filet ahead of a  temperate consumer who plops a  $1.29 box of macaroni for meal prep into the cart. 

A local charitable food bank is a winner. Anger over the injustice of SNAP also is a winning attitude. Don't feel like a loser if you budget your money and disagree with SNAP.
