    This artical explains food stamps from 1939 till now. It describes how the recession in 2008 was the reasoning for the program to grow as large as it has.

    the most interesting part of this article is when it was said that food stamp recipients are ripping off taxpayers. I know that alot of people see food stamp people as freeloaders and its due to the common conception of people taking advantage of things they don't need. I don't think it is really fair to judge without being in that persons shoes.

    I think welfare is needed and it's important to continue the program. I do however feel that the system needs to change to prevent those that do take advantage, sell their food stamps and cheat the system can't. Unfortunalty this ruins it for those who really need the help and are trying to make ends meet.

    It is important that Americans help out fellow citizens when they are struggling but I do not think that we should allow people to remain on food stamps and government assistance indefinitely. Lets form a plan to help people find and maintain a job that will take care the that person and their family.

    Hunger and food insecurity has been a huge problem throughout the years here in the U.S. Ongoing investigations have been going on throughout the years, resulting in the "food stamp program" or the "national school lunch program". Programs like these are only a start in ending hunger and food insecurity here in the U.S.

    Hunger and the food industry is a problem America has been facing for a while. I'm blessed we have emergency food programs that support the Americans who don't have enough money to buy or make food to support their families and themselves.

    Statistics of undocumented immigrants on welfare. Food stamps, Medicaid, and subsidized housing being provided. Clinton Administration's dishonest definition of welfare.

    Homelessness is a major social issue. Housing is a basic right. Before the inalienable rights were changed to "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness" is was "life liberty and property" meaning housing is a human right.

    I really hope that this issue is taken seriously and that an end homelessness. After reading the article I looked below at the comments posted, I believe that both the article and the comments make very good points.
