your quite judgmental arnt you? its nice that the government can help those in a bad position, yes some abuse it, but most need it. Keep people that cant support themselves going out and committing crimes in your neighborhood right?

Texas, California, and Florida were the states with the most recipients,

[bagelred]

Doesn't Obama know we need this money for wars?

[Loneshot]

Did you know you can't receive them if you are a student? I find that to be complete BS as if anyone needs them, it would be student struggling to make something better of themselves. Instead they have to choose between food and education.

[SCdac]

Regardless of any kind of blame game or fault, this statistic is troubling...

1970's: 1 out of 50 on food stamps

Now: 1 out of 6.5 on food stamps

I have no issue with helping people who need help...and want to help themselves. I think the idea of welfare, in of itself though, is awful. There should be job skills training, interviewing, and assistance in finding employment. Food stamps should provide you basic needs such as milk, different meats, breads, vegetables, fruits and rice. Nothing less.

It's Bush's fault just like everything else.

smh at morons like this guy acting like every food stamp recipient is some unemployed obese slob.

truth is, the vast majority of food stamp recipients work shitty minimum wage jobs. the single largest segment of food stamp recipients is not unemployed people, but WALMART EMPLOYEES. also, children make up an enormous segment of people on food assistance.

you are a fvcking idiot

[MMM]

hmm @ blaming the government. There are many reasons why America and other industrial nations are in the situations they are in. Start looking at some of the daily poor decisions you make and work the way up. Yes the Government has contributed to the problem that we find our selves in but overall it is our collective flaws that have lead us down this path. Whether it is "greedy bankers" or "lazy welfare recipients" or just down right stupidity of the majority of the population.

Children cannot get food stamps, their parents have to get it.

Please show the resource you used for the Wal-Mart reference.

No, not all food stamp recipients are bums, but many are.

Its well documented that walmart encourages their employees to get on public assistance, right down to corporate memos in the break room.

Also, I was on food stamps once. As a graduate student with a wife and small child, it was of invaluable help at that time of my life. Honestly, how old are you? You seem to have a very sheltered worldview and limited life experience.

[Real Men Wear Green]

Feeding hungry people. What an asshole.

That's not what he said, though. I'm 22.

[DukeDelonte13]

would you rather live in a country that has welfare and social programs or a country that has slum villages with huge populations? I love the belief that if you take away welfare poor people will magically disappear or they will magically find work.
