Americans will be exchanging canned food for Christmas by 2012...
Single SS seniors are the ones that hurt the most, and get the least ‘help’. $10-30 in food stamps and a few measly cans of veggies/fruit for commodities. The number at the commodity line at the community center I quilt at has nearly tripled in the past 18 months. These are the frail ones in wheel chairs, funky walkers and canes barely ably to move. They look like all the life has been sucked out of them.
And the welfare queens beat the frail elderly to the utility assistance program.
