Why not?

The Canadian government directly and indirectly gives about forty billion to the oil and gas industry yearly.

A couple billion for kebabs is pocket change for a country like Germany.

The UK government has not made any commitment to a kebab price cap.

Fuckers

Sounds like a wild idea to me to subsidize one particular type of fast food just because it tends to surpass the magic price limit of 10€.

If young or poor people don't have enough money to buy food, we have to adjust our social system and how money is distributed in the first place.

If people then buy kebap, falafel, pizza, burger, a rice bowl or prefer to cook at home, should be up to them.

The UK government has not made any commitment to a kebab price cap.

Has anyone asked them? If they are looking to turn things around in the upcoming General Election, this could be a winner.

There will be at least one post on this in !okmatewanker@feddit.uk soon.

Yes!!! More subsidies for MEAT! We need to eat MORE FLESH!" MORE!! MORE MONEY FOR THE FLESH LORDS!!E NOW!d

If elected this year I will subsidise the price of Freddos

Finally, this is an ideology I can embrace

I mean, I'd prefer some other things, but I'm not about to turn my nose up at government subsidized kebabs.

Of all the things that could do with subsidisation, I wouldn’t put kebabs at the top of the list, not even badly packed ones.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The German Left Party has reportedly proposed using state funds to cap the price of kebabs at €4.90 (£4.20) - and €2.50 (£2.10) for young people.

The meaty flatbread meal - one of Germany's de facto national dishes - currently averages around €7.9 (£6.80), a number that the Left Party says is going up with inflation.

The cost of kebabs has become something of a running joke in German politics, with Chancellor Olaf Scholz remarking that everywhere he goes he is asked about it.

Kathi Gebel, a member of the Left Party's executive committee, told BILD: "When young people demand: Olaf, make the kebab cheaper, then it's not an internet joke, but a serious cry for help!

Rents and electricity costs for kebab shops are rising, pushing up prices for consumers, the party says.

I feel like there’s a “remove kebab” joke in here somewhere, but I’m not clever or racially sensitive enough to make it.

why not do something like the us foodstamps but make it more like a universal citizens income type of thing were everyone gets it.
