Free Food





As American falls more deeper into recession, some families have jumped on board with food stamp programs.
Before 52 year old Walter Thomas joined the federal aid program, he used to skip meals because his cabinets were emptying and his savings was running out. Walter was one of millions who have lost their jobs in this recession and now him and many others keep from going hungry by relying on food aids.

One in 10 people in the the U.S. depend on aids like these to get by in life.

In some cases, "need" is not the excuse for using food stamps. With the government setting up aids like food stamps and food banks, many people jump on the idea of free food given by their tax collectors. I think that those people should just take a look at the people around them that need the food and money. People shouldn't be so greedy and take what they want. Something should be done to tell the people that if you don't need to aid don't take it, because other people's lives may very well depend on them.
