Because Seek didn’t format the article properly, I made the same mistake at first.
When you read... “Food stamps....” read this as one of the myths the headline mentions.
Then the following paragraph debunks the myth.
I’ll ry and post this correctly in a minute.
The massive increase in food-stamp spending was caused by the recession, so cuts are insensitive to economic reality.
Food stamps keep Americans from going hungry.
Food stamps are just a temporary safety net, not a form of dependency.
Food stamps are effective economic stimulus.
The Republican proposals would slash benefits.
It keeps the profit lines up for grocery store chains and big food processors. How else you gonna sell your stuff to people who don’t have money?
