30. Food Stamps Were Meant To Help Everyone
The United States government took several months, if not longer, to establish the food stamp program. Other than making sure that everything was in place for the program, the government needed to find a way to help businesses as well as residents.
Not only did the government work to help the hungry and businesses, but they also used the food stamp program to help farmers. They paid the farmers for their goods and services. Farmers received payment for plowed fields and slaughtered their animals. Unfortunately, no matter how hard the government tried, they couldn’t create the perfect system.
