    The Young Turks discusses Dana Milbank's views on why the GOP seems to go out of their way to demonize and keep down those that are less financially fortunate.

    "'It's expensive being poor' is a phrase that many who haven't been one of America's lower class citizens at one point in time may not understand.

    One of those people who may not get it is Rick Brattin, the Republican state representative in Missouri, who is introducing a bill that would ban many types of food available for purchase with EBT.

    It's a running trend of bills and laws by the GOP that dehumanize and almost criminalize the desperately poor in the United States with a firey passion that can only leave someone asking the question, why?"

    Does introducing new bills to limit EBT and other similar programs help the poor? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
