50 million on food stamps, should president run up vacation bills? (unemployment, wages)

[jojajn]

Hannity thinks not. Too much money for flights and secret service. What do you think?

I think the same thing I thought when people were attacking Obama on this.

The president doesn't get a day off, he is always working.

Presidents don't go on vacation.

As much as I hate to agree with Hannity, I do

Deporting illegal aliens will drive up wages and increase employment for Americans.

Also the #1 food stamp purchase is SODA! Unbelievable that the government is swindling the American taxpayer to buy "poor" people SODA! That has to stop.

Having said that, all government waste has to stop.

Never fear...I'm sure Hannity thinks it's all OK now, with Trump outspending Obama.


Personally, I think our presidents need vacations and those vacations will always cost us. Perhaps there should be a limit though.

BRRRRP!

The number of people on food stamps is 42 million, and that's down from 44 million last year, which is down from the all time high of 48 million in 2013.

Unemployment is down.

Thread fail.

So it is okay for Trump and family to lavishly spend our tax dollars on weekly vacations?

Dude, you can't seem to let this soda thing go. Every single time there is a thread that brings up food stamps, you bring up soda- sometimes over and over. I don't approve of food recipients being able to purchase soda/junk either, but I've noticed that you reitterate it almost to the point of obsession...

Are you ok?

With regards to illegal immigrants, I disagree that deporting them all will drive up wages. If it does in fact do that, it will also drive up costs.

I believe in a path to legalization to allow them to be taxpaying residents. However, I don't think they should be able to draw any kind of government welfare for say, 10 years.

I prefer Trump go on vacation and food stamps are just an immoral ( and unconstitutional, for those who care) redistribution scheme.
