Democrats silent as one million lose food stamp benefits in the US

I cannot fathom how our government has allowed this to happen at a time when so many have fallen into poverty and have lost their jobs. There simply are not enough jobs to go around, and even if you are lucky to obtain part-time work and pay rent, you still may need food stamps. Look at this article. Hundreds of unemployed people who can't find work are now cut off from food stamps!

Thank Obamacare. Nobody can afford to hire anybody anymore.
I'm sure you're still getting yours though. Aren't you?

Leech!

You know, there is a caboose on the Federal spending train.
The dimbulbocrats just can't seem to find it.
I bet they find a way to feed themselves now
Isn't the "Obama Economy" great?

Let's have 4 more years of it with the lying, money grubbing, sexual predator enabling cunt Hillary.

Here's a fact check for you, SassySue/DebbieDowner - the number of Americans on food stamps has soared by 30 million since 2000. That's the real scandal!

And you're whining because this explosion has peaked and the number of recipients may finally go down slightly?

Did you ever consider that being able to pay for your own food & groceries without relying on others is a self-esteem booster?

Get real, girl. Better yet, get a job. And a life.

I thought for nano-second this thread was about the DEMOCRATIC Arizona State Legislator, Ceci Velasquez, who just got indicted for "food stamp" fraud ....

... BUT APPARENTLY IT'S NOT.

House Republicans’ Additional SNAP Cuts Would Increase Hardship in Areas with High Unemployment

Why I disagree with GOP values. They keep cutting safety nets when our economy is in chaos. Yet, they want to increase the budget for military and national security in areas where it's not even needed. It's immoral and uncompassionate. No wonder the majority of Americans won't vote GOP. No wonder young voters are turning to leaders like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

And, for once, why don't you read the article and see what your party is actually doing to the poor!!!

The reason they are on food stamps is because wages have been stagnant since the mid-70's and jobs are scarce. Most are minimum wage jobs and/or only part-time. Get real. Maybe you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth and/or got lucky, but many people were not. You are not living in the real world, like the 99%.

Maybe if there wasn't so much associated fraud, the people who need it would get it ... kinda like when Fauxcahontas Warren displaced a genuine Native American for a Harvard minority-quota position.
