>DID THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS CLAMOR FOR FOOD STAMPS?!

Depends on how you want to see it.  Food Stamps were a relatively
lower cost method of getting food to the hungry than was the previous
welfare system.

Lower is better than Higher.

At the time, Murkens generally approved of doing it, and the grocery
industry Really approved of doing it.

It's not supposed to be Clamoring.

Folks leave that sort of thing up to your lot.

>SEE HOW THAT WORKS?

Have for years.  Back when I was in the Nordakoda State Senate, we
passed a school aid bill for something like $152M -- which was, at the
time, a considerable sum of money.

Was "the majority" clamoring for it?

Probably not.

Was it a good idea?

Absolutely it was!  Else the folks would have had to pay higher
property taxes.

>THEY MAKE UP SHIT AS THEY GO ALONG. JUST LIKE YOU.

Heh!  Getting a tad het up there, aren'tcha?

Calm yerself a bit here, take a deep breath.

Then go have a nap.  You apparently need one.
