I think that implementing food tickets, unless there are significant environmental concerns such as war, post-war situations, or famine, could have various benefits. But I see no benefits for the receivers of these food tickets. Unless if they are horribly underpaid which is actually a bigger issue.
The benefit is basically untaxed "money" - by law every company has to provide food for its employees for cheap. Think like $5 for a really big portion of good food. Some companies don't have the means to provide it so they give the employees food tickets instead.
That is an excellent observation.
Could you please provide more information about the current shortage that is preventing working individuals from being able to purchase food or have access to nearby dining establishments like cantina for lunch? What about individuals who are currently unemployed? Will they need to use their savings for groceries, or is it necessary to be employed at all times, similar to the situations in North Korea or China?
