If you’re going to tug at the public’s heartstrings by promoting a new face for food stamps, the least you could do is avoid exploiting someone who clearly isn’t struggling to put food on the table. And while we are never, and I mean NEVER, here to fat shame, someone should really give Amy Klobuchar that message.

Klobuchar posted a video of a mom claiming she’s been struggling to make ends meet and has relied on SNAP benefits for what’s implied to be up to 21 years. And in her very first breath, we see some of the glaring issues with how these benefits are used.

In most cases, welfare benefits should be intended to be a temporary safety net for those facing difficult times—not a permanent solution. The government should never create an incentive for individuals to avoid improving their circumstances. And just because this mom of three earns below a certain threshold, she is rewarded for it, even while other mothers—who may be working just as hard—still struggle to put food on the table.

And again, while we would never fat shame, how much is she getting in benefits to get to that size?

She now works full-time as a bus monitor for a school district and likely receives health benefits. So while she’s receiving compensation that includes both wages and healthcare, she’s still receiving SNAP benefits—essentially being rewarded while many others struggle to cover both food and medical costs. She also implies she can’t budget because she’s paid monthly, despite the amount being consistent. That raises questions. Something doesn’t add up. And something is adding up, aka her weight.

Why on God’s green earth does no one ever seem to buy healthy food with SNAP benefits? I’ve never seen a single person on these welfare payments who even appears to be in average health.

“I work, pay my bills, and like every other mom, I want to make sure I can put food on the table,” she said.

I can agree with all of that, as I too “ work, pay my bills, and like every other mom, I want to make sure I can put food on the table.” However, I get zero benefits to do what I am supposed to do and that’s not fair.

Nonetheless, I think there are two major problems here. First, she’s been on these benefits for over two decades. And second, she’s allowed to harm her own health and indulge in gluttonous habits—while others who make more responsible choices end up footing the bill. And while I do sympathize with her, especially since she implies she’s a single mother of three or four, the system is clearly broken. And Klobuchar still failed to make her case, which was already weak to begin with.
