The US Dept of Agriculture, according to Liberty News Digest, has been spending millions of dollars on SNAP (Special Nutrition Assistance Program).  It went  to the extent of producing Spanish telenovelas, 10 series, flaunting the food stamp program.  More than 45 million Americans are on dole, one of the highest in the history.

The Obama administration is spending huge amounts on welfare:

$76 billion on food stamps and

 $115 billion on disability benefits

No wonder US Fed is broke.

Liberty News suggests that the President because of this great effort wear as a badge of honor the title Food Stamp President

What do you think of these stat?

Is it OK for US to be a welfare state?  Is it OK to actively promote a welfare program?
