“Why are working families receiving food stamps in the first place?”

So all the various state and federal unionised government social works agencies can justify their salaries and budgets, due to the ever increasing number of their needy “clients”.

A better question would be - Who is John Gault?

BINGO! but the effect of adding all those marginal-need people results in the scenario above of an elderly couple, truely in need, who only get $180 a month in foodstamps, instead of the $300 a month one would expect it would take, minimum, to feed an elderly couple. The only 'winners' are the perk-heavy unionized workers while the needy elderly are left choosing between prescriptions and food each month. It's a sad state of affairs.
