Millions could face severe cuts to food stamps

Hunger has an amazing way of getting people motivated to work. Being familiar with this sensation keeps people employed, and it helps people budget better.

I have been forced to do this with my tax dollars, but now I can do the natural way. I am in touch with two different churches in my area who know how to differentiate lazy people from people in need. I don't trust panhandlers in traffic intersections, but I have some trust in churches.

Are you saying those who get food stamps help are not working? Of course, you are wrong, Most are children. Many have health or disability problems. But I hope you enjoy the suffering of those on the bottom. Over 65 percent are working.

If "most are children" and "65 percent are working," does that mean child labor is widespread among SNAP recipients, Nerdberg?

There is a good reason why you are asking this, and not quoting me.

Of course, you are wrong, Most are children.

Children do not receive food stamps.

Many have health or disability problems.

This would not surprise me.

Give a man a fish, and you'll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you've fed him for a lifetime.

Selective outrage alert.
 
Really, there is no better way to break the dependency on government handouts than to quit giving government handouts.

I knew I should have made it simpler.Of those eligible to work, 65 percent are employed. But they make so little, their families still qualify for food help. I am sure you are pleased so many places are raising their min wage. That will take many off food stamps. Buttplug

We can celebrate Nancy and Chuck's government shutdown together. Lefties can be happy that all those food stamp using, pickup driving, and gun slinging Trump supporters are going to starve, and righties can be happy that all those fat ass lefties who are carrying around gallon sized big gulp drinks and getting type 2 diabetes on my dime are going to starve.

You said most people who get food stamps are children, Nerdberg.

BTW, many are off food stamps already.


Enrollment in SNAP recently reached its lowest level in eight years.

Kill off the poor elderly and the disabled! Done and done. (They're probably BLACK anyway). If their kids love them they'll feed them. If they have no kids, 'soup kitchens'. If those aren't available, let 'em starve to death.

Percentage of ELDERLY on the SNAP program about 20% (only 40% of those who actually qualify). I don't know the #'s for the disabled.

PS 80% of people who qualified for SNAP work, MOST full time.
PSS How many people who are currently LAID OFF from the government by TRUMP, are going to qualify for 'food stamps' in the next couple of months? Talk about irony.


The Number of Low-Income Seniors Receiving SNAP Is Likely to Grow


  • The number of senior SNAP recipients is likely to increase, as the elderly population, the number of seniors in poverty, and the number of seniors participating in SNAP continue to grow
  • The U.S. population aged 60 and older has increased from 52 million to 67 million, a 29 percent increase between 2007 and 2015.[9] Over the same period, the number of seniors living below the poverty grew by 27 percent, from 5 to 6.3 million.[10] The number of people 60 and over is projected to increase to 82 million by 2025.[11]
