It would have made a powerful handout for those in attendance at a showing of the film Food Stamped. After the film several people spoke about attendant issues. Given my firsthand experience I spoke about some of the realities of relying on food stamps. I mentioned that Reagan had proclaimed my "queen" status and that I'm still waiting for my damn throne. I also noted that those who will deprive you of jobs and resources will then accuse you of being poor and hungry.

Thanks for writing this, I'm going to share it with many people who are working hard to make positive changes.
