Over 46 Million Americans On Foodstamps For The First Time Ever
While the capital markets may be cheering that in the past month 120,000 people supposedly found jobs, even if these were largely temporary or part-time just in time for the year end shopping sprees, we wonder how they will react when learning that according to the latest update from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), some 423,000 Americans found their way to minimum way subsistence, courtesy of Food Stamp handouts from Uncle Sam. Since the start of the Second Great Depression, food stamp participation has increased by 18.7 million, and is now at an all time higher 46.3 million. All Bush's fault, or something. At least the chart below appears to be plateauing... Actually, sorry, no isn't.

Keep up the good work, President Foodstamp. I wonder if he's aiming for 50 million by the election?

We are in a literal death match for our survival w this communist regime. And like I said, I wish painful misery on anyone voting for this again.

It's all Bush's Fault. ::)
I just read a newly posted comment by another idiot on this board blaming Bush.
Man, that Bush was something else, huh. Over 3 years out of the office, his last 2 years he served as a lame duck president, yet somehow, he is still having a negative influence on the economy. That is some godlike power.
