The total number of U.S. food stamp recipients recently rose to an all-time high of 45.8 million people." As the Chicago Tribune noted, thats nearly 15 percent of the U.S. population. The average food stamp benefit was $133.80 per person which is more than I spent on food as a bachelor and $283.65 per household which is more than my family typically spends on food in a month.
Loopholes in the law have enabled even millionaires to collect food stamps. Food stamp fraud has also exploded. As states try to implement antifraud measures, The Obama administration is responding by cracking down on state governments antifraud measures,noted James Bovard in the Wall Street Journal. Food stamp amounts are generous enough to make fraud worthwhile for even some non-poor people.
