The "National WIC Association," really? That's symptomatic of our problems, isn't it?

Why? Do poor families go to national parks and monuments a lot.
The other stuff is just crap.

So, if they were poor before the shut down, wouldn’t that be the fault of the government?

Though many of the programs that provide assistance to needy families and individuals like food stamps, Medicaid, and Medicare will continue running during the shutdown, the Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is barely holding on.Come on, Feds, shut 'er all down. Make the on those programs hate us and cause them to come after conservatives for causing all of this. Don't be cowards. Do it.

How low we've sunk.
Fifty-three percent of all infants born in the U.S. rely on WIC, according to the National WIC Association and participants in some states have already faced the reality of going without the services.

I’m not sure this article is 100% correct. I realize it’s not your article, just saying.
A friend’s daughter (23 or so with 2 kids) is on Medicaid and went to the urgent care today to get treated for an ear infection.
She was told Medicaid was stopped - no warning and that if she wanted treatment she would have to pay upfront to enroll in Obamacare right at the urgent care.
I told my friend to send her to an ER because they have to treat everyone regardless of if they can pay. She called the one nearest their home and they said for her to enroll in Obamacare before showing up or she wouldn’t be seen.
The girl had barely any money so the mom paid for 3 months worth of Obamacare for the daughter on her debit card and off she went to the ER.

We need to get all the illegals out of the system, then it would be easier to see what the issues are with our own poor and/or deadbeats. Illegals are overwhelming all of our social services and they are the elephant in the room when issues are discussed.

That’s so hilarious , that’s funny ? we didn’t hear of these sad sob stories during Obama’s government budget sequester ?

The shutdown might get them off their butts and start looking for work but there’s one big problem; there’s no work due to 0’s horrible economic policies, poor leadership, and Obamacare. You get the AntiChrist out of office and things will turnaround.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
I just wonder if the WIC people voted for Obama in huge percentages? I wonder if they realize what a terrible position it has put all of us in just to get their Obama phones and such. I wonder how they will fare when all of the working class people are unable to provide for them.

The only way to help those folks is to break Obama’s back by taking him and his democrats out of power.
Shut the entire country down and rebuild from the ashes. Compromising with democrats is what got us to where we are.

Haven’t the democraps won the war on poverty YET?
They’ve been waging this “War On Poverty” for 30 years!!!—The truth IS, the dems NEED the poor to STAY poor to USE as political pawns.
Too bad the poor don’t realize this.

Poor Families Taking a Hit From Government Shutdown...all the more reason for Reid and Obama to stop the stonewalling and pass the CR resolutions already sent over from the House - along with the provisions they include which would provide individual citizens with the same privileges under Obamacare enjoyed by big business 'rat cronies and congress, the president, and their staff - a move which Obama today called "partisanship".....

People should never allow themselves to become dependent on the taxpayers and the government for their survival. It’s a stupid move.
