"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Advocates Decry LePage Rule Change that Could Kick 12,000 Off Food Stamps
Submitted by Emmett Harris on Tue, 2014-08-26 00:00
The advocates are alarmed because “in July [the Department of Health and Human Services required] able-bodied adults without dependents, between age 18 and 49, to meet federal SNAP work requirements. That means 20 hours of work, school, job training or certified volunteering.” Maine had been getting a waiver from this oh-so onerous requirement, but LePage is not seeking to renew the waiver.
