Recovery? the most Americans ever recorded go hungry

[L.A.Times]...our people set a new record for food stamp consumption in a month, hopefully this is a record-breaking surge that ends sometime soon.
About 39.4 million Americans, the most ever, received food stamps in January, the government said.
The number of recipients was up 22% from a year earlier, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The total of Americans getting the subsidy has hit records for 14 consecutive months.
 Apparently this is how we are going to fix Childhood Obesity :-(
