Do you think Obama is going to change that? He is making it worse. Yea, keep increasing taxes on everyone, that will fix the problem <sarcasm>
I will never vote for any candidate be it democrat or republican that runs around saying we need to raise taxes.
Raising taxes is the only thing Obama knows.... "middle class americans will not pay one more dime in taxes" or so Obama said. Will you believe him again.
Food Stamps and Public assistance are the only thing that keep the USA from becoming a part of the third world. We would have riots, soaring crime waves and danger if these people would resort to stealing in order to survive...
In addition, many workers are paid so little that they are eligible for the program. Don't like that, raise the minimum wage.
Moreover, the population is growing.
1. record numbers of unemployed citizens
2. lowest work force participaiton in 50 years
3. record poverty rates
4. record lows for home ownership
5. incomes declined 7%
6. highest wealth gap since 1890s to 1900
Liberal policy of
1. importing more illegals to drive down wages
2. NAFTA, China trade policy, and pacific rim to send jobs overseas
3. repeal of Glass-Steagle- let Wall Street do whatever it wants
4. High corporate taxes
5. Obamacare taxes
6. increasing EPA regulations
.......................... all kill jobs and thus increase the number of poor, dependent citizens. Since the poor and federally dependent are all democrats, it is great for the democrat party and terrible for the nation.

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
conservative farmers in conservative states are huge supporters of illegal immigration, because they don't want to pay Americans to pick crops.
conservatives overwhelmingly support free trade, TTIP, TPP, CAFTA and NAFTA.
the legislation that repealed glass-steagall was the Gramm-Leach-Bliley act -- named after Phil Gramm (Republican from Georgia), Jim Leach (Republican from Iowa), and Tom Bliley (Republican from Virginia).
Food stamp eligibility = income minus (sum of out of pocket housing and medical expenses).
Stagnant wages plus soaring rents plus necessarily skyrocketing electricity prices plus Obamacare individual mandate = more people qualifying for more food stamps.
Because obama and the Dem's want a permanent dependent class
Landlords want a permanent dependent class - a class of rent slaves dependent on landlords. Soaring rents plus stagnant wages = more food stamps.
