The Good Samaritan Hunger Relief Tax Incentive Act

Fighting hunger is a team effort. Feeding America’s nationwide network provides food to 25 million people every year, and strong U.S. government programs are also vital to meet the nutritional needs of low-income Americans.
The business sector,including farmers, food manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, and others, also plays an instrumental role in battling hunger.
By donating food and transportation and promoting volunteerism, businesses of all sizes help put food on the tables of families in need. While businesses already make substantial contributions to fight hunger, improved public policies.
Particularly passage of the Good Samaritan Hunger Relief Tax Incentives Act,will promote even greater business participation in this effort.

Senate Cuts Food Stamps!
Really guys!

Medicaid is a basic need, even if many doctors will not accept patients who do not also have Medicare!
A Shocking Fact! I know of such cases, in people extremely ill!
Unable to travel miles to clinics!
(The package would provide $16 billion to the states to extend funding for Medicaid, the state-federal health care program for low-income residents. Demand for Medicaid services and the program's cost have risen sharply as a result of the recession and slow recovery).

July 13, 2008
This is a brief history of the food stamp program.
It emphasize the point that hunger and poverty at this level did (and still does) exist here in the USA.
In the waves of rancor and stigma directed to welfare recipients, it is easy to lose sight of the benefits of such programs.
Hunger in the US in a non partisan issue, but we cannot sit back and wait for the government to help those in need.
As human beings and citizens of the United States, we have a civil and moral duty to care for one another. If we did so, there would be no need for welfare programs.
So get involved. Start a food bank, join a food drive, adopt a neighborhood homeless person and share your leftovers.
And do it more than just once a year at Christmastime.

Senate Proposes Cuts In Food Stamp Funds
As the Washington Post's Ezra Klein explains, last year's federal Recovery Act increased the amount of money for food stamps, or the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP), to about $80 more per household each month.

This is an important issue!
It won't impact me much.
But people who, and there are many really poor out there, will suffer!
So naturally I am turning to you for help.

None of These Three Areas Is The Place To Cut Spending.
Food, Medical Care and Good Teachers Are Programs that don't even begin to fill the needs of poor Americans who need all three of these resources to survive!

In my opinion cuts should be made in government waste. See what's not working and crack down on governmental waste.

The expense accounts, and $300 meeting lunches that go on all over Washington, anywhere in the country!

People like whatever Senators would take the food out of a poor persons mouth, we know have Never Been hungry. Why would they be? They have an expense account!
Time does not permit the horror stories of normal, everyday government waste.
In my college office every shipment we got a couple of boxes of pens that wouldn't write. Never wrote, but the company got rid of their dried out stock part of a lowest bid office package. Maybe cost 2 cents per office.
Adds up Country wide. This was just an allegory although true.
This is an unavoidable, expense.

And Naturally we've all heard about the screwdrivers that cost $39 and a lot of examples of overpaying, etc. This is not unavoidable!

Expediters will show how much money can be found just by cutting corners.
Purchasing practices could be one area to scrutinize for savings.

And I'd make all the crooks pay back all the money they stole!

I know no Senator will take a 5 percent cut in salary and benefits to save these and implement still much needed programs.

Which the American People Rich or Poor Are Entitled To.
We put them into office to get rich to begin with!

People like to try and blame you for America's Problems President Obama.
But You Are Doing A Magnificent Job for The Mess You've Been Left To Clean Up!

Power To The People And A Real Good Birthday To You Pres.*

Senate Cuts Food Stamp Funds
Leaves Oil and Gas Subsidies Intact
http://food.change.org/blog/view/senate_cuts_food_stamp_funds_leaves_oil_and_gas_subsidies_intact

1. The price of food has not gone down!
From my experience at the Supermarket register, Food prices have increased
at least one third UP not DOWN1

2. If you eat any meat at all $80 worth of food may feed one person for 5 days!
Are not the poor entitled to eat, the rich think they themselves, are!

3. Why doesn't the Senate take a measly 2 percent cut in their salaries.
That should make up for a large part of America's fiscal problems
right there!

President Obama, it's up to you whether or not to veto this bill. Guess we're a little outnumbered and there is no money! Gotta take what's available! But as afore mentioned give me that budget and I'll show where to trim it! LOL

Update 12/10
I took a hit and if it help feed 30.5 million children they
can have the $28 a month!


I trust you explicitly, Pres Obama!
I know you have your hands full with the Senate and Economy.
But I Also Know That You Are A Man Of And For The People!

And I also know that you must personally think that this bill is an outrage!

You know, I know how Cool you and Co. are.
And Again, Happy Birthday Wednesday!
(You have the same birthday as my Father).

Peace
