10.7 Million More Use Food Stamps—A 32 Percent Jump

Breitbart:

As President Obama prepares to leave office, his legacy will include an increase in the number of Americans using food stamps.

The number of food stamps recipients went up by 10.7 million people, a 32 percent jump, since President Obama took office in 2009, according to data released by the Department of Agriculture (USDA).

In 2009, 33,490,000 people received food stamp benefits. As of October 2016, the last month reported for FY 2016, 44,219,123 people received food stamp benefits, an increase of about 10,729,000.

  1. Pure Cloward-Piven and the skullduggery of the Radical Left to weaken American any way possible. This is also why he takes so many ultra-lavish vacations. Not that a few million spent on him is going to make a significant difference, but rather the general overall philosophy of: “If it costs a dollar, spend 10” that he practices at every opportunity!

  2. Make the healthy earn their handout even if they have to sweep the streets.
    5 am must report that your ready for work. 7 am the bus picks you up. Summertime
    mow grass and other yard work for the senior citizens who still live on their own.
    Fall rake leaves.
    Wintertime shovel snow for the seniors.
    In other words no free lunch. You must work for your check.
    You will also be drug tested, to include drinking.

  3. Only democrats measure success by the increased number of people on welfare and food stamps. Get everyone on these and not seeking employment and unemployment rates magically imprime.
    Biarriarro world.

  4. NMFL hits the nail on the head. No more automatic EBT deposits. Make leeches pass a drug test before benefits transferred/stolen from those who work for a living to those who vote for a living. No benefits to virile adults. Leeches should have to pay for monthly drug/alcohol/tobacco tests. 10% deduction for every tat, piercing, nails job, hair coloring, O’duce phone, piece of bling, and spendy clothes. 15% deduction for every 10 pounds of obesity. 50% deduction for luxury cars. How’m I doing so far?
