4. Food stamps are feathers compared to wars.

The Iraq War cost 10x as much annually as these damn food stamps. How many of these anti-food stamp Democrats also voted to bring more troops to Iraq and Afghanistan? And appropriated more and more money into defense than into social services? And besides, food stamps DO help economy don't they?

But then again, poor people are just lazy and should enlist in the military to keep up America's world police department right? :sarcasm:
