SUPPLEMENTAL Nutrition Assistance Program, Albaby.

NOT "Comprehensive Replacement Assistance Program."

I'm well aware of that. My point is that Rep. Higgins is not. He was clearly mistaken in his characterization of SNAP grants as being so incredibly generous as to permit recipients to purchase an o'erflowing amount of food, when in fact they are (by design) nowhere near enough to cover even half of family food costs. That's not a criticism of SNAP benefits being too low - it's a criticism of Higgins' ignorance of how they are not generous enough to permit recipients to purchase multiples of their grocery needs.
