actually its an embarrassment of riches. Most of them are double dippers using the food stamp program first and then the food bank.
In fact, in modern America, far more poor people suffer from too much food rather than too little.
The way to avoid the moral hazard in food stamps, save money, and improve health, is to limit their use to very basic, very cheap, very nutritious foods.
Agreed. My Wife runs the Food Pantry at our Church. It's a once a Week thing, and moves allot of food from various sources. They are real limited on sweets. They do a great job on Nutritional Foods.
can you comment on the conflict between food stanps and the food banks?? We are told everyone who is hungry can get food stamps?
I know two people who get food stamps, and go to food banks. One of those people goes to 4 different food banks each month....And he is only feeding himself.....
