“Post-recession”, that’s a laugh.
Nothing odd about it ... in an entitled society.
What idiot thinks the recession is over?
Unexpected.
Odd? Why should anyone getting something for free ever give it up without a complaint? RATS never do.
POST recession, yup.
We are at war with OCEANIA. We have ALWAYS been at war with Oceania….
>> The post-recession increase in utilization of the SNAP program has to be viewed as a new and unique - and possibly detrimental - phenomenon.
*possibly* detrimental?
Under what conditions would having a greater number of your citizens fed by the government at taxpayer expense be viewed as an asset??!?
Fast & Furious was a BOTCHED sting.
Benghazi was a huge shock, owing to a video.
The situation on the southern border is a CRISIS.
Uh-huh, we get it.
The recession’s OVER?
Well, HUZZAH!
(Nobody told me)
I’d like to see an age distribution for those receiving SNAP.
I’ll bet it’s skewed towards able-bodied gen-Xers and millenials like never before.
That's because we have been and are in a Depression. The government continues to lie to us. And all of these "smart" institutes continue to ignore the elephant in the room!
What the graph tells us is either that the jobs added to reduce the unemployment are jobs that are inadequate to support families OR that the unemployment rate is a lie.
Like being fat, or an unwed mother, food stamps are no longer intolerable.
They moved the unemployed over to ‘disabled’ (11 million plus) and now don’t even count people who gave up looking for work because the economy is terrible.
Notice how all the SMARTEST people in the world are befuddled by so much..?
Stuff —all kinds of stuff familiar to you and I, the peons— proves to these beard-strokers as CONFUSING, or UNIQUE, or ANOMALOUS.
Some much-ballyhooed, fundamental economic turning-point is always at the lllllllast nanosecond magically thwarted, oops, NEXT time —weather, computer glitch, could be a million things.
It’s sorta like Scotty, of Scotty’s Castle yore —the country is wandering around Death Valley, and the long-promised glittering castle of gold is always juuuust around the corner, over the next sand dune, oh wait, whoops,…it must be the next sand dune, I promise….
HOW MUCH will the country pay in tuition, I wonder, before these geniuses get some smarts…?
We’ll be dead.
Well, if you were Obama and his wife dining out on lobster, filet mignon, cavier and truffles, vacationing for 350 days a year knowing that your daughters (no matter what their IQ) was going on to a Ivy League school with a sinecure after they flunked out, you’d think the recession was over too! Now stop complaining, sir.
Economics rule #1 - give something away for free, and demand becomes potentially infinite.
The more people that are dependent on the government, the more successful Obama is.
why is that an “odd trend”, the economy’s been destroyed and people need to feed their children, children having children is now accepted too, since the democrats have made existence all about sex, so what do they expect?
The odder trend is stealing taxpayer money to give out as “grants” to fake corporations to build new energy garbage that doesn’t work and no one wants
And the even odder trend is to steal taxpayer money to fly the head of administration and his family on all their ultra luxurious vacations
