I mentioned this subject in a group of people, a couple days ago. One response I got was, "We do enough for the niggers and white trash on welfare". I explained that the people on welfare are being fed, this is about the people not on welfare. Many were employed until recently, and with their unemployment running out, even more will be hungry. I'm not sure he was convinced, I think he'd made up his mind.

State budget cuts are tough, they can't keep spending money they don't have. Sometimes it means cutting the jobs that serve the most people, to blackmail the taxpayers, but when it can't be avoided, cutting the jobs that serve the fewest people only makes sense. After all, you can't expect the politicians to cut their pay/perks.
