Pull the plug: Republicans’ food-stamp fail could add $70B to taxpayers’ burden

House Republicans have failed Negotiating 101, and taxpayers will suffer.

The GOP is on the verge of helping Democrats expand America’s already-out-of-control food-stamp program — formally the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP — by an astounding $70 billion, at least, over the next decade.


That’s the reality of the House’s proposal for the so-called “Farm Bill,” which is almost entirely filled with food-stamp giveaways.

Republicans should have aggressively fought to protect taxpayers and promote work, but they tried to placate Democrats before the bargaining began.

Republicans are missing an enormous opportunity.

$billions of food stamp fraud every year.

Don't give illegals food stamps and see how it goes.

Probably be a lot of self-deportation.
