Food Stamp Recipients at Record 41.8 Million Americans in July, U.S. Says
By Alan Bjerga – // Oct 5, 2010
“…The number of Americans receiving food stamps rose to a record 41.8 million in July as the jobless rate hovered near a 27-year high, the government said.
Recipients of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program subsidies for food purchases jumped 18 percent from a year earlier and increased 1.4 percent from June, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said today in a statement on its website. Participation has set records for 20 straight months.
Unemployment in September may have reached 9.7 percent, according to a Bloomberg News survey of analysts in advance of the release of last month’s rate on Oct. 8. Unemployment was 9.6 percent in July, near levels last seen in 1983.
An average of 43.3 million people, more than an eighth of the population, will get food stamps each month in the year that began Oct. 1, according to White House estimates. …”
Nancy Pelosi accuses Newt Gingrich of waging class warfare
“…House Speaker Nancy Pelosi struck back Wednesday at Newt Gingrich over comments the former GOP leader made urging Republican candidates to make next month’s election a fight “between the Democratic Party of food stamps and the Republican Party of paychecks.”
In an appearance in her hometown of San Francisco, Pelosi said Gingrich and the Republicans are trying to use class warfare in order to gain electoral advantage.
//
“There is some subliminal message that is being sent out there about us and them, meaning people who need food stamps and the rest of the country, which I think is an unfortunate course to go down,” Pelosi said.
“It is the biggest bang for the buck when you do food stamps and unemployment insurance — the biggest bang for the buck,” she added.
On Tuesday, Gingrich — the former House speaker and mastermind behind the GOP’s 1994 Contract With America — penned a letter attacking Democrats and their handling of the economy and giving generic advice on how Republicans in 2010 can repeat their success from more than 15 years ago.
“It is an unassailable fact that in June, more food stamps were distributed by the government than ever before in American history. (It turns out that Barack Obama’s idea of spreading the wealth around was spreading more food stamps around.),” Gingrich wrote. “Most Americans would like to get a paycheck. Most Americans would not like to be forced to have food stamps handed out by liberal Democrats.”

GOP is the party of shipping our jobs overseas and destroying our economy. It’s the party of spending 3 trillion dollars on two unwinnable wars yet obstructing every penny that goes towards improving our country’s infrastructure. It’s the party of the race to the bottom. The Democratic party puts us in a race to the top.
