Recovery is here!!!!!
A record 38.2 million Americans were enrolled in the food stamp program at latest count, up 246,000 from the previous month and the latest in record-high monthly tallies that began in December 2008. Food stamps are the primary federal anti-hunger program, helping poor people buy groceries. . Participation has surged since the financial-market turmoil of late 2008 and has set records each month since December 2008, when it reached 31.78 million. Enrollment is highest during times of economic distress.

Don't include me. Bindare is right.
Of course he is!
The smoke and mirrors coming from the govt and the msm is sickening.
Things are getting far worse not better, its just that people are caught up in the media hype and lies from the govt to realize the truth of the situation.
