That’s certainly a great point brother.. The American pass was filled with honorable Christians just like your great grandmother. It was such a better time people were more polite people were more hospitable. We did have a food stamps program along time ago it started but it was different they had the food vouchers and it was certainly a much different thing in many explanations.My G-Grandmother (devout Pentecostal) during the height of the depression would feed the "boxcar bums" coffee, soup, and cornbread off her front porch. Black, white, it did not matter.
She was poor as a church mouse herself but somehow found the wherewithal to feed them.
My mom said that she had the neatest yard (and garden) because the guys she fed insisted on doing work for her like spitting wood, cutting grass, pulling weeds, and such.....Even destitute and riding the rails they had pride.
Contrast that to the average POS that walks into your local food bank.
