Ryan Budget Cuts Affect Food Stamps For More Than 45 Million Americans

And as Paul Ryan, the Right Wing Conservative marauder of social programs , gains favor amongst his Right wing Conservative peers he has been assigned a new task – that of including Welfare Reform in his list of things to bludgeon, right alongside Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.

Now New Mexico will end its food stamp supplement for elderly and disabled residents as of July 1st 2011, according to Republican Governor Susana Martinez in answer to the Paul Ryan proposal to reduce the nations deficit by not increasing taxes on the rich but by removing the social benefits from those in our society who need them.

The Ryan plan of attack is one dimensional. For all social programs, pejoratively referred to by the Conservative Right Wing as Entitlement programs, Paul Ryan has proposed a capped block grant. In the case of food stamps, Ryan has made its dispensation contingent upon on work or job training for those in the job market.
