    How can you force everyone to own a car, take away any alternative, and then punish someone for owning a car???

      What if we destroy public transit and make all urbanization car focused then punish families for owning more than one car, a necessity in many part of the county?

      GOVERNMENT CHEESE

      Actually, they only give government cheese to people over 60. And that's likely to get cut in either this year's farm bill or the next, because the only reason it's still a thing is to stabilize the cheese market when there's a surplus.

    Watching the same people who get mad about soda taxes clap for this. It is truly a fine example of the "rules for thee, but not for me" conservative mentality.

        That looks so sad.

        Also what's with the capitalization? It looks like they're doing the meme.

          It might have to do with regulation, the further a food product is from what it pretends to be, the more off its name has to be basically, like "chicken wyngz". Whatever is in those things, it ain't cheese lol.

    American cheese is good and I will die on this hill. Real American cheese is made with actual cheddar or colby cheese, it is just treated with emulsifying salts so that it melts in a satisfying way on your burger or other warm sandwich. Other cheese doesn't do this - American cheese is the best cheese for burgers.

    This is different from something labelled as a "cheese product," or "Kraft singles" or other shit like that - these are terrifying industrial monstrosities.

    And of course, fuck my state.

        To a degree, but not as much as cheddar + sodium citrate and shit. American cheese IS real cheddar, it just melts better through the magic of chemistry. Its when the package says stuff like "processed cheese product," "American style slices," and shit like that, then there isn't actual cheddar cheese.

    So many poor people I know own more than one vehicle. Beyond even the usual two people have two cars, It's usually an old beater that needs work. Whether it's about having an "asset" that could be sold, a project on which to project dreams, or just a status symbol, I don't know. It doesn't matter. It is no reason to deprive someone of food.
