TWO MILLION Leave Food Stamps...

TWO MILLION Leave Food Stamp Rolls in Trump’s First Year — Saving Country $3 Billion Annually

The Washington Beacon reported:

The number of individuals receiving benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), otherwise known as food stamps,

declined by more than two million in fiscal year 2017

, according to data released by the Department of Agriculture.

In fiscal year 2016, the number of individuals receiving benefits from the food stamp program totaled 44,219,363. In 2017, that number dropped to 42,182,443—a decline of

2,036,920.

Food stamp participation has declined roughly 9 percent over the last four years. In fiscal year 2014, there were 46,663,872 individuals on food stamps.

Historical data show that while the program has expanded greatly over time, participation has declined as of late. The USDA has been tracking data on SNAP participation since fiscal year 1969, at which time average participation in the program stood at about 2,878,000. This means that since then, participation in the program has increased 14-fold.

The data indicate that food stamp participation peaked in year 2013, when there was an average of 47,636,000 individuals benefiting from the program.

As of 2017, the program cost taxpayers about $58 billion with individuals receiving an average benefit of $125.05 per month and households receiving an average benefit of $252.55 per month.

The average benefit per month is $125 per person.

So if you figure 2,000,000 dropped off the food stamp rolls that means the country is

saving (2 million x 125 x 12 = 3 billion) $3 billion annually thanks to Trump policies.

That three billion in savings could pay for the Great Trump Border Wall in 6 years!

Hopefully Marla is one of these people.. all the best Marla..

I would think that the dramatic drop in Food Stamps, a welfare/low income food subsidy, is due to the wonderful work the Trump Administration is doing, & encouraging, as you noted elsewhere:

Well done Mr President........Well done indeed!!!!!

PS......when the people are no longer in bondage (receiving government subsidies forces people into bondage), they are less apt to fall prey to the addiction to those subsidies, & will no longer need the government who put them there.......the democ-rats.......

After he signed the 1964 Great Society Legislation, LBJ noted that he has guaranteed blacks would voting democ-rat-ic for the next few hundred years......which the progressive left, & the MSM have been trying desperately to erase his words from history, but to no avail......witnesses have attested to the fact that LBJ said:

Snopes even says there is "little proof" that LBJ said it......in a round about way, by saying that there is "little proof" means that there IS PROOF that LBJ did say it.......

So, as proven time & time again, the democ-rats use welfare to enslaven people.....addict them to government subsidies (welfare).......to assure these enslaven people vote for them year, after year, after year, after, year......

Even CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, & SNOPES .....even though they try their damnedest, they can't always hide the truth from the People. Like the Great American President, Ronald Reagan once said......."Trust, but Verify"......
