Wonder if they'll be living in Obamavilles, like the Hoovervilles after the 1929 crash?

$2.1 million of food can sustain 5,200 families for one week?

That’s $400 per week per family.

Big families in Indiana, I guess?

Saw what may be termed an “Obamaville” in Sacramento on the news... more are sure to show up as this travesty unfolds!

Tent citys springing up all over the place, picture spread on MSNBC a couple days ago of one in Sacramento.
I prefer to call them “Barryslums”

I’m of the opinion that much unemployment (or “underemployment”) results from a lack of vocational education, and I think we have too little vocational education in this country because almost our entire education system, from pre-school to the university level, is dominated by the government.

RV market got a double whammy: $4 a gallon gas, and then the credit crunch/equity crash.

Any time you give anything away, people will line up for blocks. If some car dealer gives away hot dogs, he’ll get hundreds of these moochers. When a bank gives away coffee and cookies at Christmas, they’ll be packed.

HundredsThousands seek food handouts in Indiana city.

And to think, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

“Are you looking for a job?”

What is going to happen when the government can’t fund food stamps and there aren’t as many farms that need “hands” as there was in the 30’s? Now we have machines that can do what most hands could do before.

These fools in Indiana voted for Obama. The first time Indiana went other than Republican in many years. I wonder if they like being out of a job?

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

According to Pelosi and Reid, food stamps and handouts is what will get this economy going again. They claim that this will be an “instant” economic stimulation because of all the trucks, agriculture people etc, getting food to the poor and unemployed, will make a “real economic recovery happen much faster than the free market can.”

I'm positive that these people are proud that they are doing their part to help get this economy going again. Especially in their local situation, where you can cut the Democrat sponsored prosperity with a shovel.

I support giving out food over food stamps any day. At least you can be sure they are getting the necessities and not beer and cigarettes.

Interesting that Obama used these good people as political props at least twice, and then returned to Washington and is actively pursuing policy and signing legislation that will make the job losses in Elkhart pernament.

[Old Professer]

They put $403 worth of food in a single box of macaroni?
