If $300 Billion is cut from SNAP and food assistance to low income people in the BBB

I believe it's reasonable to expect those flash mobs we've seen overwhelm and rob 7-11s to turn their attention to supermarkets. And not just for Doritos and soda. Food to survive. The stores could be flooded with so many people intent on getting food any way they can that police are useless. And with enough loss and damage to the stores, they may close -- and who knows for how long?

It's more than morality and ethics to help people without means to have access to food. It's now into societal mayhem.
