One in four children
in America participated in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program, or food stamps, in fiscal year 2011, according to data from the
United States Department of Agriculture and U.S. Census Bureau.
The USDA's "Characteristics of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program Households: Fiscal Year 2011" shows that in 2011, 19.9 million
children, or people under 18, received food stamp benefits.
Now
maybe even liberals think there's a welfare problem? Well, maybe we
should just limit access to high capacity semi-automatic food stamps?
KIDDING! Seriously though, this number is from 2011 so you know it's gone up since then. Sad.
