You think the govt taking taxpayer money and using it to feed over 40 million people is the role of the US
Govt? How did the people in the USA get along before the food stamp program? Did you ever think about that?

Food Stamps: 1932-1977: From Provisional and Pilot Programs to Permanent Policy

What are these people to do if there are no jobs available to buy food? Let them suffer?

Wasn't it just a month ago in Yahoo news that 1 in every 2 people were struggling in this economy?

Have you ever been hungry enough to walk up to a house and ask them if you can do some work for a meal?

Do you think the person being asked would have the time/inclination to pay you to do something they could probably do themselves?

Even if it were something like raking the lawn or weeding, that's not enough to stay afloat financially, let alone a wife and family.

Do you disagree that those who volunteer to serve are better that the one does not care about liberty and freedom? How odd.

Business follows profit. There is no accounting line for "feelings" of any kind.

I see. So you believe that businesses are not run by people with passions? How do you explain why so many businesses left California? Isn't it the loathing of a free people who chafe under the collar and whip of an out of control, predatory government?

Admit it, you believe everything is a personal attack.

Many people have done that. I've done that. People used to help each other in this country. We used to reply on our neighbors, churches, and the local community to meet the needs of the poor. Now the Govt takes care of the poor and needy at a much higher expense on everyone. Govt is inefficient.

The Govt has taken a temporary crisis from the 1930s and made it bigger and more expensive until it became a bloated inefficient program. Food isn't the problem. There is plenty of food.
