Food stamp recipients down 2M under Trump, USDA figures show

Since Donald Trump became president, the Dow Jones industrial average has climbed to 25,000 and fewer Americans are unemployed.

Another interesting fact: The number of people collecting food stamps has declined by more than two million.

Data released by the Department of Agriculture show that the number of participants in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), otherwise known as food stamps, dropped to 42,182,443 for fiscal 2017 – a decline of 2,036,920 from the fiscal 2016 total of 44,219,363.

How many left the program rather than submit to drug testing in those few states that demand it?

If because of drug testing 12:08, that's still a good thing.

When you see 400 or 500 pound cows walking around in grocery stores with carts full of food and towing 2-3-4 or 5 kids all overweight with cell phones in all their ears also, they are getting way too much in food stamps AND welfare. Plus the cart is full of junk food and sodas. I see it all the time.

Watch those that go in the grocery stores and get a bag of chicken and put it in their cart and then walk around eating it, then hide the bag and leave and not pay for it.
