The boost in food stamp spending was designed to be temporary, and now it ends, and I am glad it does.
WASHINGTON – Forty-eight million Americans will have their food stamps benefits slashed starting Friday, when a recession-era boost in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistant Program expires.
The move to cut back benefits will be the first wide-scale change to the program affecting nearly every single participant. The 13.6 percent cut comes out to about $36 a month less for a family of four getting government assistance or $420 a year, according to the Department of Agriculture
36 less a month for a family of four getting over 600 a month.... Yeah, i don't feel so bad considering my family of four spend less than 500 a month... I can't believe they eat better than me... I don't think they cut deep enough... Liberal thread FAIL...

Source says 420 not 600. do you have a different source?
Nothing say "liberal" like using children as a shield.
