BS.BFD. 90%+ of rise was just new unemployed. Good- thanks for the corrupt depression and pandering to the greedy idiot rich.... So CNN is commie now? You really lose cred with that crappe.Link to "pork bill"? Most of it is people getting poorer and poorer and becoming eligible. Thanks GOP.How about the military. And I would argue all of those, and if one suqs, it's because of Pub underfunding (VA). ACA is MUCH better than the old Pub "system" ay caramba and will only get better duh.. Medicaid isn't supposed to be great, but basic. Obama did NOTHING to grow welfare-, that was W wrecking the economy, dupe.
Do you consider food stamps as welfare? Because DumBama expanded it in the Pork Bill. Even under Bush's worst years (towards the end) we still had way more Americans working than DumBama has today.
Hell, I'll even use one of your own Commie sites:
Is Obama the 'food stamp president?'
By Tami Luhby @CNNMoneyJanuary 17, 2012:
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- A record 44.7 million people -- or 1 in 7 Americans -- were on food stamps last year. But does that make Barack Obama the "food stamp president?"
Newt Gingrich once again slapped that label on Obama during a South Carolina debate Monday night, saying: "The fact is that more people have been put on food stamps by Barack Obama than any president in American history."
It's true that the food stamp rolls have swelled more under Obama's tenure than under his recent predecessors. Also, his 2009 Recovery Act allowed even more people to sign up.
Is Obama the 'food stamp president?'
Try again. DumBama lowered the qualifications for food stamps and increased the amount each applicant got.
