We would do much better diverting the money to feeding these kids three meals a day at school so mom and dad can't convert the stamps in for liquor and smokes.
A lot of families on food stamps have several jobs. They're the working poor. They want to work,
but still don't make enough to get by. Take away the food stamps, they wind up in the hospital with high blood pressure, diabetes, mental illness and other diseases that will cost you more as a taxpayer. FOOD STAMPS ARE CHEAPER.
