    You have no idea what you are talking about. Food stamps is about 100B per year we have never moved that much physical food for anything but a massive massive overhead. There is every reason to believe we can’t scale it up without massive overhead because its a massive endeavor that existing supply chains are already handling. It would be comparatively trivial to give recipients a boost in money to buy fresh produce from existing grocery stores.
