There are a lot of reasons why our politicians like the food stamp program so much. Number one they can get big campaign contributions from food processing companies and farmers by giving food stamps to people so they can buy their food. Also, the populous also likes getting free stuff, and those in the Democrat party are all about maintaining their base, even if they drift us into socialism. If all the people getting the free food will vote for various politicians, and if the politicians are getting campaign contributions from businesses continue to do so, then there is no one who is going to stop the program.
However, this becomes a giant smorgasbord of government giveaways on the taxpayer's dime. Further, people keep piling the food on their plate, and it's free, so they are going to try to get all they can. Don't worry, that's human nature, that's how it works, and it's obvious that there is abundance in our society judging by how many fat people are in the United States these days. In fact, because of our abundance, quality-of-life, everyone seems to have gotten fat, dumb, and happy. Some might say that this spells the beginning of the end for our great civilization, and although the jury is still out on that concept, they might be right.
Okay so, let me ask you a question? Are you on food stamps? If so, you are not alone, 47-million Americans are now. Now then, if you are on food stamps ask yourself something; "is the government food stamp making me fat?" Well, I don't know, but if you are on food stamps and you are fat - then the government is the biggest contributor to your ill-health and fatness. One could say that all this free food, or you can call it "free fishes" is making you unable to fish for yourself. Okay so, let's ask that question again, and let's be honest; is it making you fat, dumb, and happy?
Indeed, there is an irony here because the more you eat and the fatter you get, the less quality of life you will have in the end, thus the less happy you will be. Of course while you are busy getting fat and eating all that food, you will be happy in the interim, and the politicians will be happy during their term, as long as the money keeps flowing, there will be no one to stop it because there are so many people getting free food that there is no way they're going to vote against the politicians giving it to them.
You may think by getting free food you're getting a free ride, but in the end it is the American citizen who's been taken for a ride. I just hope you don't get so fat that your last ride comes sooner than you wish and you find yourself in the back of a hearse. Please stop overeating just because the government is giving you free food. Please consider all this and think on it.
