The economy is in the toilet because of Obama plus he expanded eligibility. Now middle class people can get food stamps. Its turned into yet another subsidy for those who want to stick their hands out and get it. There used to be a time when I was younger when you took food stamps because you had to and you avoided it by any means if you could. Not anymore. We are turning into a nation of freeloaders with no shame in asking for a handout no matter what their circumstances.

Since the start of the Second Great Depression, food stamp participation has increased by 18.7 million, and is now at an all time higher 46.3 million.

Wait a minute, something doesn't make sense. I'm looking at that graph, and about 31 million were on food stamps at the end of the President Bush presidency. So 15 million extra were added during the last few years of the Obama presidency! It is nearly ALL Obama's fault!

We’ve got some of the richest poor in the world.

They’d be lower-middle to mid-middle class anywhere else.

We must all come to love Big Brother.
Big Brother is the Provider.

Love Big Brother, or else, you will be audited by the IRS.

Never forget either with this president, this is redistribution of wealth. He’s just gotten 14 million more people getting stealth reparations. While it’s not a lot individually, it’s still a significant amount of “free” - to them - money.

If this 46 million includes children - how many ‘families’ or ‘households’ might this represent?

i.e. One mother with five children = 1 Dem vote.

Do the math:

46 million times $5.00 per day(my guess) = an annual cost of $84B dollars. Pretty cheap way for the demonrats to buy votes.

How many of the 46,000,000 are children for whom their parents are receiving food stamps AND we are paying through federal programs to feed them at least breakfast and lunch, if not 3 meals a day, at their schools? How much is that costing us to feed the children 31 meals per week (each) or more?

Ask a Democrat.

This is considered to be a huge success, if they are honest.
