Democratic Georgia Rep. David Scott said that food stamps are necessary because of America’s “policy” of imprisoning families.
“First of all, the situation regarding employment and jobs, poverty, all of that. All of that has been structured into our economic, social policy over the last quarter-century,” Scott said at Wednesday’s House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing to review the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), talking about the outsourcing of manufacturing jobs before turning to the incarceration issue.
“Our policy of sending so many of our young eligible fathers to prison. Millions,” Scott said. “Our prison population went from 300,000 in 1975 to over two million today. These are providers who are not there. This is why we have so many single female head of households. I mean, so when you look at everything we have done, we’ve got to correct some of these things first.”
“Sometimes, it’s not getting the right answer that matters if we don’t set up the right problem to get to that right answer. And I asked this question before. Where are examples of the fraud? Where are the examples of the abuse?…I can’t find any answers on that. I want somebody to tell me, where is the waste? Where is the abuse? And where is the fraud…”

Go back to chain gangs like they had in the 60’s.
We Need Food Stamps Because So Many Fathers Are In Jail
Our policy of sending so many of our young eligible fathers to prison. Millions,” Scott said. “
Yeah cause none of them committed any crimes!
I ax you..... what does the one in the middle work with?
Excellent insight.
Now, let's "set up the right problem".
Many, many young women are getting impregnated by thugs and layabouts. What's wrong with girls and women that this is happening?
Don’t know, you should probably ask his fellow baby mama who are on food stamps right now.
Food stamps. Why one has to pick responsible partner when she has government to pay her bills?
Was this guy actually elected to Congress or did he just happen to wander over from the nearest nuthouse, put on an expensive suit, and grab the nearest microphone?
How about those "fathers" learn to behave themselves?
Funny the Albany (NY) Times Union “newspaper” did not even mention the comment and it is very partial to comments by Black activists.
However, they did cover in-depth, and with many pictures, US Senator Chucky Schumer and his incredibly difficult and dangerous campaign to get the US Postal Service to consolidate a local town’s Zip Code into ONE number.
War is designed to destroy the physical body. Welfare is designed to destroy the soul.
One, women are completely held unaccountable for anything in their lives. Until that changes the country will continue down this path.
Secondly, when I do a zoom out, I kinda "get" why women have been subjugated for so much of history and in so many cultures. Yeah, not fair, but hear me out because this isn't entirely a slam on women. With out women to anchor society we see society crumble and women spiral out of control. What we see now is women completely unanchored, unfettered and irresponsible. The results are not pretty. They expect little from or for themselves and demand even less from their men.
Both tools of the state.
They would both perfect runnings for the Uni-Elite Party!
“They should make prisoners do hard labor to pay off child support.”
Oh, no! That would be unfair to the illegals, taking away their Obama-right to a job. /sarcasm
Have Christian homeschoolers adopt the kids, sterilize the mothers.
Destroy the stupid "black experience"...it is Hell.
