Isn't Vilsack saying the governments spends $ 1.84 to provide a $ 1.00 in benefits?
To: BfloGuy
Every dollar of SNAP benefits generates $1.84 in the economy in terms of economic activity. Minus the $1 in taxes, and at least another $1 in bureaucratic overhead. I want my 16 cents back.

Pelosi, unemployment is a stimulous now we have this idiot saying food stamps are a stimulous.......Aside from my children being born the 2nd best time of my life will be watching these criminals be convicted of crimes against the American people! treasonous Jay treasonous

Oh. My. G-d. The hits just keep on coming from this crew.
Every dollar of SNAP benefits generates $1.84 in the economy in terms of economic activity.
That is a plain old, out and out lie.

Well, Tom, then double the food stamp benefits per person and give them to everyone. That’ll stimulate the economy so much that it will put everyone back to work, right? Right?

Yes. Schools are teaching Keynesian economics and the funny part is they actually believe it.

Schools are teaching Keynesian economics and the funny part is they actually believe it.That's what's amazing and so sad. To think that an obviously intelligent man like Ben Bernanke, for example, actually believes that claptrap is astounding. Keynesianism is the greatest hoax ever played on the world -- well, maybe the second greatest. Karl Marx probably wins that honor.

Every dollar of SNAP benefits generates $1.84 in the economy in terms of economic activity.That is complete wishful thinking. Every dollar put into SNAP was TAKEN from a PRODUCER in the economy.
Every dollar of SNAP represents communism; no two ways about it this is re-distribution of "the" (read some "other" person's wealth/earnings) wealth.
