In April a record 33.8 million people received food stamps, a fifth consecutive monthly record. Surprisingly according to Bloomberg, Texas was the state with the most recipients, above California.
Expect the numbers to continue increasing, particulaly since the politically (mis)directed stimulus is having little effect on anything but government.
Its a shame that the entire stimulus couldn't have just been given directly to the people rather than to governments.
Tax rebates would have done far more to help those who need the help. But the "party of the people" really isn't. Its all about government.
