Millions of Americans Using Food Stamps

When the new U.S. Congress is sworn in in January, one of the first orders of business will be a new economic stimulus package. Legislators and analysts say a stimulus bill will likely include an increase in food assistance and food stamps. Jeff Swicord reports that the number of Americans in need of food assistance is at an all time high.

I work at target and i see loads of white people every day using food stamps so shut the fuck up you racist shit head, your hatred on blacks is not helping this country.

I don't mind a hand up.. but generational handouts must stop! When someone is trying to improve their lives then we should help.. but I am tired of people who sale their foodstamps for drugs.. or do absolutely nothing for themselves!

Isn't It Ironic? The food stamp program, part of the Department of Agriculture, is pleased to be distributing the greatest amount of food stamps ever. Meanwhile, the Park Service, also part of the Department of Agriculture, asks us to "please do not feed the animals" because the animals may grow dependent and not learn to take care of themselves.
