Republicans Join Dems to Protect Food Stamps!

[Gary and Alla 3,694]

No matter what they do with the card the funds end up in communities all over the country. It's a program that boost local economies and feeds kids.

What's not to like?

Should they cut out some of the junk foods, I think so...but the lobbyist would kill that.

And it provides a lot of funds for local grocery stores, you should see the lines and the heaps of food people buy on the 1st of the month! That's a lot of funds going to provide JOBS to people working in the grocery business.

Food stamp recipients are an essential part of the economy. If they all got high paying jobs and lost food stamps how would grocery stores survive? Then we would have MORE unemployed people and the people formerly on food stamps would have to get jobs at grocery stores to serve the people who formerly worked at grocery stores who were then on food stamps.

You simply cannot mess with this program. We need it.
