For older adults who may otherwise be food-insecure, participating in food assistance benefits may be associated with a slower cognitive decline as they age, according to new research: cnn.it/45tlKfD

Well no wonder Trump is cutting it? His admin wants everyone over 70 (except him) to die.

And, yet, let's get rid of food assistance programs that work. There are 200 families in my region that rely on Friendly Meals. And many more that rely on SNAP. If you get rid of these programs, people are going to die. I suppose they don't care

“This study is important because it shows that supporting basic needs like food access can have long-term benefits for brain health, something not widely recognized,”. Has not been peer-reviewed yet, and the article also notes eating right in addition to other things is what we should do.

To help people get food please consider donating to Feeding America, Meals on Wheels, and the World Food Programme. And helping people sign up for SNAP benefits.

We subsidize a lot of what they depend on, especially food. As DJT eliminates programs that help them, we're not going to just roll them into a ditch, we're going to help them at the state and local level which makes it much more expensive for everyone. This is no different than creating a new tax.

Who's going to pay for it. Let them starve. I don't want to pay for a boomer to have their 10th orthopedic surgery. There we people born after 1964 and should not have to shit in a bucket due to lack of sewage services so the boomers can take as long to die as medically possible

Are you suggesting that you're going to commit suicide when you hit 65 or something? You know what would make this cheaper for your wallet - single payor healthcare. We're going to do it, the Fed govt makes it cheaper. Move it to state and local and you're paying more in taxes.

If they did, it would solve a lot of problems and the best part is they would never have to pay taxes again

But again, are you going to unalive yourself at age 65? This would apply to you as well of course. There would be no need for elder care, so even rich people couldn't find drs that specialize in it so they would need to leave the country - probably Canada where it's free, and they live longer.

I doubt I will live that long. I am sure I will die before that due to a lack of access to medical care.

Well, it's a good point but not a good reason to let those who are healthy to die. My Dad is 78, built a 1.5k sq ft deck by himself last summer and he has Alzheimer's. I could be dead before 65 but even with my pretty shitty health, I expect I'll live longer than that.
