One of President Obama’s legacies after leaving office will be an increased number of Americans using food stamps.
During Obama’s presidency, it has been reported that the number of food stamp recipients has gone up by 10.7 million people, resulting in a 32 percent increase since he took office in 2009, according to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) data released by the Department of Agriculture.
SNAP benefits provide vouchers for groceries for qualifying low-income Americans.
Nearly 33,490,000 people received food stamp benefits when Obama began his presidency, and over the past 8 years since he has been in the White House, that number has soared to 44,219,123, which is an increase of about 10,729,000 people, according to the most recent data.

It's a double whammy - his policies cost so many their regular jobs - and his 'recovery' only added part time jobs....in addition to lowering the standard to qualify....
ReplyDeleteClose the borders and significantly reduce these kinds of benefits - and able-bodied people can go do the jobs the illegals did!
this was his goal...

ReplyDelete8 years of crap , it will take Trump many years to make repairs to a broken country.
ReplyDeleteHe's staying in Washington , real bad move , he is the most hated person in the country.
Hopefully Trump will bring that percentage down
ReplyDeleteQuestion to ponder (which I don't know/have the answer):
ReplyDeleteAre more people in America going hungry than 8 years ago? Key part of the question is "people", not "Americans". Why? Cuz politico's can spin the question either way. "People" means too many illegals - "American's" could then mean there are less hungry than 8 years ago.
The other question would then be: Are there more poorer people (or American's) than 8 year ago?
Interesting questions depending upon the topic from the TV talking heads.
