i was surprised how surprised the CEO of Gallup was by the figures...it should be common sense that if only 5% of the population was unemployed, we would not have 47 million people on food stamps! as scott walker has said, a successful govt is one where fewer are dependent on the govt

Are you on Medicare or SS, you are dependent on the government. Do you get some military pension or vet benefits, you are dependent on the government. Do you want the water to be clean, the air to be breathable, the roads to be repaired, the police and fire services to be available, you are dependent on the government. Food stamps are fully available to the working poor. So your surprise that with low unemployment we have millions still needing food stamps means you are not paying attention to the realities of life of our working but struggling families.
