It just keeps getting worse and worse:
Record Dow, record S&P, record debt, record plunge in gold, and now: record US households on foodstamps. What’s not to like. While today’s gold selloff may be confusing to everyone, one can scratch off some 23,087,886 US households, or the number that according to the USDA, were on foodstamps in January and just happen to be a fresh all time high, as the likely sellers, especially when one considers that the average monthly benefit to each household dropped to a record low of $274.04. This number probably ignores, for good reason, the once every four years fringe benefits of Obamaphones and other such made in China trinkets…
Serious question for those who voted for Obama – is this what you voted for? Ever more people on welfare while the rich get richer and more Chinese garbage gets exported to the United States? Did you consider the possibility – even for a moment – that just perhaps someone else might be able to do a better job at it? Or was it always and ever going to be a vote for Obama? If so, why? Because you just wanted to stick it to us Republicans? Because you were afraid to vote against our first black President? Because you were actually worried that Romney was going to go after your birth control? Tell us what motivated you last November…
