TEXAS SEES GREATER DECLINES IN WELFARE THAN NATION

[Pudfark]

The number of food stamp recipients (the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP) fell in Texas in 2013, dropping 4.6 percent from a year earlier to 3.9 million recipients in December 2013. Nationally, SNAP caseload declined by 2.1 percent from December 2012 to December 2013 as the job market gradually warmed up.

Old Pudfark sez: " BYOB "

when over 5 million residents NEEDED food stamps to start with, a larger percentage drop is to be expected. Thank Obama for helping
your miserable economy to recover.

You misspelled Rick Perry.

Rick Perry, Governor of Texas
Governor Rick PerryRick Perry has devoted his adult life to creating a more prosperous Texas. The Lone Star State’s 47th governor, he has defended Texans’ conservative values, fought for principled solutions to tough challenges and worked to implement a clear vision for better schools, more jobs, safer communities and a brighter future.
Thanks to his adherence to tough fiscal discipline, Governor Perry has helped shape a job creation environment unlike any other state’s. With low taxes & government spending, predictable regulations, a fair legal system and increasingly accountable schools, Texas has led the nation in job creation with more jobs gained than any other state in 2010 and over the past ten years.

As a result, Texas is consistently ranked as the nation’s best place to do business and create jobs.
