Yeah,and if the shiftless looters could use food stamps at booty bars there would be even more stimulus as employment in the service sector,hookers,strippers,bartenders,cocktail waitresses,bouncers,janitors as well as the growers of olives,limes,lemons,cherries and onions will be increased.
Side services like free clinics,rehabs,vice cops,divorce lawyers,check cashing outlets and loan sharks would be added as well.

“Problem solved.”
Yep. If you follow their thinking then not only should everyone get food stamps but also get a monthly $10,000 government check. Employment rate would be 150%.

>>If people are able to buy a little more in the grocery store, someone has to stock it, package it, shelve it, process it, ship it.
And somebody has to pay for it. Us.
Every dollar removed from the people by taxes reduces the amount of capital to invest and thereby create jobs.
The democrats love to point to A, the fellow in the hammock (safety net they call it), and proclaim the good they are doing. They do not point to B, the taxpayers who are hurt by haveing their labors stolen. B is always invisible.

Rather than lose money going through a middleman, let’s go directly from earner to market.
Lower taxes and quicken stimulus.

Every dollar of Food Stamps generates $1.84 in TAXES!!!!!
The rest is eaten up in the bureaucracy.
