Food Stamp Follies Update: Lucas County Commissioners to Take Food Out of the Mouths of the Poor
From Toledo’s ABC station:
The toughest part for people using food stamps is going to a food pantry and getting their food for the month. But that’s only if it’s in stock. And that’s no guarantee. Pantry workers say they’re seeing a lot of empty shelves.
…
The three commissioners plan on coming to this pantry tomorrow to stock up.
So the commissioners, who make $84,703 annually and are currently engaged in a political stunt to not spend any of their own money on food, will stop by the pantry for some free food that would otherwise go to people who likely do not make $84,703 annually. Free food that, from the account above, isn’t all that plentiful.
Is this officially a farce yet?
