[ link to www.usnews.com] "It's welfare reform 2.0. It is pretty exciting," says Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., one lawmaker who has been pushing to chop $40 billion from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, during the next 10 years. "I think it is a very compassionate approach, targeting and reforming food stamps from being a way of life." Who said anything about a 'way-of-life'? What's so 'very compassionate' about this? It IS a way of life, when there are generations of kids who have NO IDEA how to get $$$ for food except with the EBT cards. It IS compassionate to give people a hand UP, instead of a hand OUT, and make them dependent on Uncle Sam, or anybody else's uncle, for that matter. It IS compassionate to TEACH people how to be self-sufficient and learn to FEED THEMSELVES.
