So why not give your mom (and all moms) cash? Then they can order food delivery if they want, or not if they don’t.

Fairer, simpler to implement, no avenues for corruption.

Or we could just not pass absurd tax hikes to pay for grocery delivery, and then everyone has more money in their pockets and can freely choose to give it to their mothers for delivery. Forcing everyone into it via tax collection is literally absurd.

Are you also opposed to school lunch programs that provide free or very low cost food to students?
