I think the poster who offered to volunteer her time to help a person make $280 stretch is the most thoughtful.

Generally speaking, tuna and eggs are your cheap proteins. . .you can structure some relatively cheap carbs around those staples and then throw in some cheap cuts of beef and chicken.

The rest of this is Conservative Prattle.

I am taken aback by the mere fact we have the largest, most robust economy in the world, where we herald capitalism as the example of how run an economy (which I would actually agree) to other countries and apparently, 1 in 11 people is on food stamps.

Apparently, a rising tide has not lifted all boats the last 8 years, has it?

Soup kitchens. . .here we come again.

There should be a national goal of reducing that to 1 in 30 people on food stamps and let people have opportunity to feed and clothe themselves.

As far as this comment:

That's just what the Conservatives don't understand. . .we do already.
