[TABLE="width: 844"]
[TR]
[TD="colspan: 7"]Welfare Spending by State - 2014 in billions.... Of the top 10, only 1, maybe 2 are considered Red states.

With grocery bills priced [URL="http://www.cnpp.usda.gov/USDAFoodPlansCostofFood/reports"]as high as $1,300 per month[/URL]as of late, some American workers simply cannot afford all of their groceries on top of everything else they already have to buy. This is why the government offers food stamps.
The [URL="http://www.fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/datastatistics/September-Performance-Report-2014.pdf"]USDA Food and Nutrition Service reports[/URL] that as of September 2014, there were around 46.5 million individual food stamp recipients (22.7 million households) receiving an average benefit of $123.74 each (around $257 per household).
To be eligible, a household has to earn a gross income amount that's less than 130% of the poverty level, or a net income amount (gross income minus deductions) that's less than 100% of the poverty level for their family size.We've created a list of the states that have the most food stamp recipients per capita. To determine the states on this list, we used the [URL="http://www.fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/pd/29SNAPcurrPP.pdf"]USDA Food Nutrition Service's most recent state-by-state data[/URL], coupled with [URL="http://www.census.gov/popest/data/state/totals/2014/index.html"]population data from the Census Bureau[/URL]. States with the highest number of food stamp participants relative to population ranked highest. We've also included a state-by-state breakdown of food stamp use in all 50 states and the District of Columbia
States with the most people on food stamps:
7. Louisiana
• Number of food stamp recipients: 868,192
• Percentage of the state's population on food stamps: 18.67%
• Total cost of just these benefits alone (That is, how much do just the money on those EBT cards cost the state): Around $107.4 million
• Cost of benefits alone per capita in this state: $23.10
6. Tennessee
• Number of food stamp recipients: Just over 1.28 million
• Percentage of the state's population on food stamps: 19.58%
• Total cost of just these benefits alone (That is, how much do just the money on those EBT cards cost the state?): Around $158.7 million
• Cost of benefits alone per capita in this state: $24.23
5. Oregon

• Number of food stamp recipients: 144,768
• Percentage of the state's population on food stamps: 21.97%
• Total cost of just these benefits alone (That is, how much do just the money on those EBT cards cost the state?): Around $18 million[/QUOTE]
This is just food stamps.......that is a small portion of the AMOUNTS I posted in my data, but I guess you're like all the rest of the LIBTARDS..........
You cannot stand legitimate Data. BTW, your **** came from gannett newspaper. My **** came from the CBO, DIRECTLY.
good try though.

Man Geo, read your quote to my wife, and she told me to respond...we did better than our parents and we gave our kids everything, and we regret it!!!!! I have 2 children, and my daughter is 26 and don't think she has had a job for longer than a month, she has a sense of entitlement, that she got from her parents not making her work for anything.....now my son is totally different, wanted to serve his country, just made E4, and re-enlisted for another 4 years, and we couldn't be prouder of him, he is hard working, respectful to his elders, and takes his job very seriously....one thing I have to say is that I would never want to see a child go hungry, but I believe if you don't work, you should not get a penny more for 2 kids as you do for 15.....i think its bull that a man that cannot pay his child support can go to jail, but a woman can lay up and have 15 kids with no consequences, that woman should be put in jail for child endangerment, kids put in foster care, and have her sterlized!!!! I am tired of paying for people who think I owe them something, I don't owe anyone anything, and we need to eradicate welfare completely except for a one year period, if your capable of working, and you don't find job in a year, your cut off.....put the kids in homes, and let them be adopted to parents that can teach them how to be responsible adults instead of teaching them how to live on welfare!!!!!

Our nightmares seldom make it to reality... Seems I can remember when the middle class was stronger and I don't remember the sky falling... We (meaning all of us including the left and the right) whine more and more as the economy gets worse and that whining has gotten worse with the weakening of the middle class... it seems 2x2 never equals 4 to anybody... Pay better wages and our economy and our dependence of gov handouts get better but you guys think more soup lines for the lower class and more of the countries resources moving to the top is the ticked.... The richer the top gets the more our country will deteriorate and that can be traced to you guys hero and the worst enemy of the economy.... I hope the Reagans of the country never find their way back into power...[/QUOTE]
I have a question for you.....if they raised minimum wage to $20.00 an hour, how many of those deadbeats living off of welfare for generations is going to go out and get a job??? Not many, they will claim racism, reverse racism, and every thug, and white trash welfare recipient will continue to live like they do.....they don't want to work, or have responsibility......
While everyone is on this subject.....my wife and I have worked our whole lives,, and at tax time were lucky if we didnt owe at the end of the year.....but walk into a Walmart, and see the tax line, you know the woman with 6 kids all with nike shoes, nike warm up suits that gets government assistance ALL YEAR LONG, is getting a refund of $9,000 dollars!!!!! My wife's niece is a waitress, her husband is too sick to work, gets disability, food stamps, they get it all, well she is getting back $7,000.....these people should not get crap back, and all the middle class who pays for these people to live, should get that amount.....this country has gotten so bad, and god help the future generation that has to take care of these people, and the 35,000,000 illegals that will be drawing welfare just as soon as they get their democratic voting cards, when osuckme makes them legal!!!!

So in a free country you would be ok with forcing sterilization on an american citizen... Maybe you live in the wrong country... Some in the middle east might follow your guidelines closer...

You realize that Margaret Sanger , a poster child for women productive rights, advocated JUST THAT.........She went on to form Planned Parenthood.
You act disgusted with the idea, but you support a party that pushes that EXACT idea..........
Again a little education would help your arguments......
Later,
Geo

I take this to mean you also would advocate forced sterilization in a free country... Doesn't sound like you are actually an advocate of freedom if thats true..
