Uh Oh: 47 Million Food Stamp Recipients Are Having Their Benefits Cut Back On November 1st
NBC News is reporting that ALL food stamp recipients are going to have their food stamp benefits reduced in November. This is certainly not going to put those living in poverty in a good mood…
47.6 million Americans are about to have their food stamp benefits cut, and most of them have absolutely no idea that it is about to happen. Needless to say, a lot of them are going to be very angry when they discover that they cannot buy as much food for their families anymore. The reason that this is happening is because a temporary boost to food stamp benefits that was put in during the recession is expiring. But most of the people that are having their benefits cut will not understand this.
Most of them will just be very upset that the government is "taking money away" from them. And considering the "mini-riots" that we witnessed earlier this month when the system that processes food stamp payments went down for a few hours, it is obvious that a lot of food stamp recipients can very easily be pushed over the edge.
