43. Thanks for putting my thoughts and stray words into well said paragraph.

Too many emotions running too hot these days.

1 in 7 Americans are using food stamps - 1 in 7 and it's an all time high! It's only logical that more money would be spent on the program and let's not forget the people who could use the help but fall just above the qualification standards. Their only hope are charities and/or the kindness of strangers.

NPR has this nicely graphed out here:
