The Food Stamp program was created because elected officials were shocked at how many young American men were entering the military with health problems caused by malnutrition. Bad teeth, weak bones, even scurvy. It was a national disgrace in a nation with so much fertile farmland and an over-abundance of food.
It’s not the poor who are sucking up our tax dollars. It’s the massive, bloated bureaucracy that has grown up around the program. For every dollar given to a food stamp recipient, about eighty dollars go to the fat, well-entrenched bureaucrats who run the program.
Is there some web based reports on that to send to ones favorite conservative outlet?
