“Nutraloaf provides the correct incentives: you won’t starve and you’ll be motivated to earn enough money to eat real food again,” she added in her viral X post.
Yes, because the reason poor people are poor in this country is because they're not willing to work. Not that they aren't able to work, or do work but make very little money, or have genuinely put in the effort to get a job but constantly get turned down, or the fact that numerous billionaires (and a trillionaire) pretty much hoard money and pay little to nothing in taxes, no - it's the poor's fault they're poor.
The food, also known as “prison loaf” or “meal loaf” is often served in US prisons to inmates as punishment.
...and the poor deserve to be similarly punished, apparently.
“‘We should treat the poor like we treat misbehaving prisoners,’ is def a take I expect from u,” one X user wrote. “They can opt out at any time by simply paying for their own food,” Yap responded.
This may just be the article's wording, but this looks a whole lot like her not denying that "let's treat the poor like we treat misbehaving prisoners" is what she's proposing.
