Obama will not rest until all Americans are on FOOD STAMPS.


FOOD STAMP RECOVERY

Three years after the end of the 2007–09 recession, which officially began in December 2007 and ended in June 2009, 47 million people each month are using the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). At the beginning of the recession, fewer than one in 10 Americans received SNAP benefits. Nearly 15 percent of Americans now use SNAP benefits, formerly called food stamps, a program administered by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). This translates to more than one in 7 Americans currently using SNAP benefits, a record non-emergency high

When I ask my kids what they want to do with the rest of their life they say "get free stuff from Obama".

Mothers of America, we were all so wrong in teaching our kids. Instead of encouraging our kids to want to grow up to be a nurse, doctor, own their own business we need to tell them how that it is "the great American dream" is NOT to become rich but to live on welfare.

Thankfully we have Obama and Clinton who will help us make this dream come true for our kids.

Former President Bill Clinton claimed that President Obama had not gutted welfare reform. Clinton proclaimed that Obama would actually strengthen welfare reform by urging states to increase the number of people moving “from welfare to work” by 20 percent.

Actually they will have a good life. Free rent, free food, free cell phones, free electric. Pretty good life if you ask me. We will also be sticking it to the rich lol. Go Obama!

Now get off the computer and go to work, I got some bills that need to be paid.

Here is a nice link on SNAP because I think most people posting in here are poorly informed on what it is, who is on it, and how much they are receiving.

Or keep up the Obama bashing, either one works.

actually the irony of this thread is you get these people who are against abortion and how every baby should be born blah blah blah, but the moment you say, well the parents who can't afford to feed there babies should receive food credits so their child could eat and those same people are all for letting those kids to starve to death cause it's not their problem.

I'll let that one settle cause I am sure the irony will go right over a few people's head in here.
