This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
For now, Ainsley back knew
Ainsley. Okay,
thank you Adam.
The Biden administration is set
to approve the largest permanent
increase in food stamps in
history.
Under the new rules, the average
monthly benefits will increase
by thirty six dollars.
The new maximum for a family of
four will go up by twenty one percent,
and the plan is expected to cost
another twenty dollars billion per year,
but our next guest says these
feel good policies are not good
for you
here now to explain: executive
director for Cure America. Action
incorporated MARC Little
Good morning mark
Good morning, Ainsley
its good to be with you
Ainsley, so glad to have you
here
tell us your reaction when you
heard about this increase.
Well, it saddens me because,
as you said, feel good policies
are not good for America
and its associated and attached
to whats happening in the
economy with jobs.
Joe Biden is really redefining
work in America and our
character with these stay at
home benefits.
The reality is that we are
paying people to stay home, and
now we are making sure that they
dont have to work because they
have got food stamps. In
abundance,
we have got nearly ten million
jobs available with nine
workers,
nine million workers available,
and so we have got more jobs
than workers,
but yet these folks have been
polled and they said that they
are going to live off the
largess of the government.
That is playing itself out.
So work brings dignity,
work brings value,
and when you pay people to stay
home, you really do change the
character of a family and of the
community
Ainsley MARC. This will benefit
forty two million people, but costing
the american taxpayer
twenty dollars billion a year.
How can we afford this?
Well, we cant afford it, and
this simply ensures that the
nanny state survives another
generation
we spent over twenty two dollars trillion,
trying to eradicate poverty.
We cant afford it. Just like we
cant afford the infrastructure
bill that was done,
thats, not infrastructure.
We are on our way a click slide
into something that we dont
want to really talk about,
but its socialism and we are
trying to break the system
and its really a tragedy to see
smart people really breaking the
back of America with policies
that have been proven not to
work
Ainsley we have seen cost goes
up for food.
We are seeing costs, go up at the
gas tank as well or at the gas
pump.
How is this going to affect
inflation?
Is it going to make that
increase as well?
Oh, I think it absolutely has.
No, absolutely it will
with all of the policies that
are happening with garks
regressive taxes, its really
hurting the american family
were not focusing on the
american family
and im very concerned about
that.
Because we are, we are paying
people to do nothing while the
things that we have to pay for
with food gas, and so many
other things
were not creating an
environment that allows a family
to thrive.
Ainsley more government
spending MARC little thanks so.
