Lets see here, 58% of the entire US budget's spending goes to military, but only 1% to food stamps, yet the extreme right goons want to cut there instead of the ridiculously over-bloated military?
It shows beyond any doubt that the GOP are a bunch of idiots that don't give a damn about anything but to keep bankrolling the snot out of their cronies, while screwing over the poor in an attempt to pay for it.
Actually food stamp funding comes from the USDA but you already knew that didn't you military hater.

Nothing quite says it like a pie chart.
Besides if the US Guv stopped feeding people, they will need to bring the military home to stop the revolution.
Gov't, needs to downsize and get out of meddling in everything.
If hungry people are a burden to America why not permanently eliminate the hungry people?
Hungry people?
Buddy, I'm on my way out the door to go to Walmart.
When I get there, I'll see food stamps (Bridge cards) being used by lots of people, but hungry?
No way.
These people are too morbidly obese to walk all the way back to the ice cream isle without developing heart palpitations.
These big fat fat pigs load the electric carts with steaks, shrimp, crab legs and Hagen Das, then pay for it all with money stolen from those too young to vote.
Yeah, thanks for pointing out the suffering of hungry people in America Visvaldis.
May all the people who scream for cutting out food stamps have to deal with starving people throughout this country if you succeed. Even though "poor people" is an easy target to make you feel better about doing something in re the budget, poor, hungry people will not be easy to deal with. Even Paul Ryan is NOW distancing himself from the great individualist Ayn Rand in order to proclaim his Christianity. Where does it say in the Bible that poor people should just starve because it may required tax money to help feed them?

Yes starving folks in the US are obese. You want to see folks "starving" go look at kids in Africa happy to get a bowl of rice a day. Beans that's only for special occasions like one day a year when the local dictator decides to open the warehouse because he had a good day. The cart warriors are surely a sight to see at wally world.

If your starving the the US your just to lazy to walk down to the salv army or local food bank or whatever or maybe your cart needs to charge.
Nice try but you fail. Discretionary spending only makes up 18% of the entire budget.
Nice try but fail. What makes more sense, take cuts from something that is ridiculously over bloated with spending like the military, or something that is a tiny piece like food stamps?
Actually food stamp funding comes from the USDA but you already knew that didn't you military hater.
Which is a branch of government which is included in the government's discretionary spending, but you already knew that, didn't you american citizen hater.
Tough one for me, if you cut the military that means people out of work, that means less innovation and less intellectual capital as well. That's quite a loss.
