I guess this is part of the Cloward/Piven strategy that's been in the works for some time now. This goes together with allowing illegal aliens to be in the country without the possibility of being deported. I would bet there are millions that are coming this way, now that they've heard this and if he's giving away free food stamps on top of that…
Henry Kissinger declared in the 1970’s, ‘If you control the oil you control the country; if you control food, you control the population.'
Why is the government attempting to make everyone dependent on them?

Government under fire for 'novela' ad campaign promoting food stamp enrollment
Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/07/13/government-under-f...
The Department of Agriculture is coming under fire for its "aggressive" ad campaign, including a 10-part series of Spanish-language "novelas," to convince people to go on food stamps -- at a time when one in seven are already enrolled.
The food stamp rolls have swelled since the recession, growing roughly 40 percent since 2009. As of April, more than 46 million people were in the program, which costs $80 billion a year. Yet the USDA is engaged in an ongoing ad campaign to convince those not on food stamps -- but still technically eligible -- to let down their pride and sign up.
Part of that campaign is the Spanish-language radio "novelas." The translated scripts, provided to FoxNews.com by the USDA, compose a 10-part miniseries called "Hope Park." In it, the characters are shown persistently trying to convince "Diana" to go on food stamps -- known these days as SNAP, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program -- even though her husband works and she doesn't think she needs it.

How many of you Right Wing fools build your own highways?
Every American is dependent on government in one way or another, including Mitt Romney.
The Founding Fathers planned it that way. The founders gave us the Constitution, which set up for us a government we could depend on.
Why do Mitt Romney and his RWNJ peons hate the Constitution so much?
Does anyone know?
The interstate highway system maintains the interstate highway system.
No, you won't see President Obama out there on with an orange vest and a shovel in his hand . . . . Duh Duh Duh Dumb A$$.
But you will see people working for a contractor who works for the US Government.
Ever heard of gasoline taxes? Have you ever wondered what that revenue is designated for?
Have you ever tried to think critically at all?
Come on man. Use your brain for a change.
You don't want to be a pathetically idiotic RWNJ for the rest of your life do you?
The people you see working on the roads, highways, bridges all work for a company....a company that someone built and it sure as hell wasn't the government.
The engineers.....private company that someone built
The gravel pit..... private company that someone built
Paving operations ......private company that someone built
The only thing the government did way take money from the taxpayers, siphon off a good bit and then pay the tab, BUT who really paid the tab, your kid obie n'company or the taxpayer?
Road building contractors work for local, state, and Federal governments.
Or did you single-handedly pay for the interstate highway system all by yourself?
The government pays these contractors and subcontractors, thus providing jobs for their employees.
Allow me to give you a tiny hint:
"government of the people, by the people, for the people"
See..... government didn't pay anything, the people did
- Theodore Roosevelt
Why do you hate yourself so much Mr Bubbles?
So follow the logic here Lee "The government is us; we are the government, you and I." ie: the people.....the people built the bridges, fought the wars, built the businesses
Wasn't that easy Lee?
;o)~
Yes, of course the people, through the Government, did those things.
The Government is a tool we use to make our lives better. And the Constitution is the user manual for that tool.
The government is a tool we DEPEND on to make your lives better.
And yes, we depend on the government.
All citizens depend on the government.
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Albert Einstein ...
what are you gonna say now Lee, that it.......DEPENDS?
Now some would argue that it's more of an act of stupidity, either way Lee....you've been exposed
Adult students studying abroad that have dual citizenships, receive income from their families, College Programs, other countries, and/or grants, and trusts from ancestors that lived abroad. They are not dependent on the US.
EDIT:
What a wimp you are. I see you blocked me, so you could get in a last word unchallenged.
You're weak and stupid and unable to defend your claims. No wonder you're so attracted to America's Right Wing.
Thanks for demonstrating your weaknesses so explicitly.
Thank you for being you . . . Dumb A$$.
I just gave you two different examples of US Citizens that do not depend on the US Governent. Have someone read it to you and maybe explain it. Me Dumb? No Way, your finger was pointing in a mirror. LOL

"You are ruling over us for our own good," he said feebly. "You believe that human beings are not fit to govern themselves, and therefore--"
He started and almost cried out. A pang of pain had shot through his body. O'Brien had pushed the lever of the dial up to thirty-five.
"That was stupid, Winston, stupid!" he said. "You should know better than to say a thing like that."
He pulled the lever back and continued:
"Now I will tell you the answer to my question. It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness; only power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from all the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had th...

We are different from all the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just round the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now do you begin to understand me?"

"You are thinking," he said, "that my face is old and tired. You are thinking that I talk of power, and yet I am not even able to prevent the decay of my own body. Can you not understand, Winston, that the individual is only a cell? The weariness of the cell is the vigor of the organism. Do you die when you cut your fingernails?"
He turned away from the bed and began strolling up and down again, one hand in his pocket.
"We are the priests of power," he said. "God is power. But at present power is only a word so far as you are concerned. It is time for you to gather some idea of what power means. The first thing you must realize is that power is collective. The individual only has power in so far as he ceases to be an individual. You know the Party slogan 'Freedom is Slavery.' Has it ever occurred to you that it is reversible? Slavery is freedom. Alone--free--the human being is always defeated. It must be so, because every human being is doomed to die, which is the greatest of all failures. But if he can make complete, utter submission, if he can escape from his identity, if he can merge himself in the Party so that he is the Party, then he is all-powerful and immortal. The second thing for you to realize is that power is power over human beings. Over the body--but, above all, over the mind. Power over matter--external reality, as you would call it--is not important...."
