Food stamp usage is at an all time high in this country. How can that be when we as a nation spend more and more every year on 'combating' poverty? The truth is not that we (the Federal Government) as a nation are really trying to help improve the lives of people in poverty by assisting them to "get out" of their situation we are trying to put more people into poverty. Any reasonable thinking person would say that is crazy!

You have to understand the liberal mindset (which is now a Communist/Socialist mindset) is that despite what they say publicly they 'want' more poor people because it increases their voter base. The other day on Sirus radio I heard Tom Sullivan talking about how the Federal Government is spending about one million dollars a month on TV and radio ads promoting people to sign up for food stamps. Amazing! He even played some of the spots and they would make you sick to hear them.

Government wants more people on food stamps

The federal government is running radio ads to boost enrollment in food stamps.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- More than one in seven Americans are on food stamps, but the federal government wants even more people to sign up for the safety net program.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has been running radio ads for the past four months encouraging those eligible to enroll. The campaign is targeted at the elderly, working poor, the unemployed and Hispanics.

The department is spending between $2.5 million and $3 million on paid spots, and free public service announcements are also airing. The campaign can be heard in California, Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Ohio, and the New York metro area. Click Here for the Food Stamp Story
Where and how will this all end? Or will it ever end? Can our government just keep spending more and more money and nothing bad will ever happen? Will they start taking more and more taxes to try and cover the deficit or will they just keep printing money? It does seem that more and more of us are finally ready to take a stand and say no more! 
During the GOP Primaries Newt Gingrich coined the phrase "Food Stamp President" when speaking of Obama. It is a true statement. How many of you know that a 15% increase in food stamp benefits was part of the 2009 Obama stimulus package? Amazing.
Over 46 million people now are on food stamps and enrollment in the program is projected to continue increasing in the coming years.
