It appears that one of the presidential canidates did want to cut food stamps. The Toledo blade is reporting that the USDA will be cutting funding for food stamps to Ohio residents. The change will affect approximately 869,000 recipients and could mean a drop of $50 per month in benefits. How is that hope and change working out for the folks in Ohio? This change was not announced until after the election. The change is linked to how the USDA calculates benefits based on utility bills. Ohio did appeal the decision, but the USDA rejected it. So families that are struggling to feed thier children can look forward to $50 less per month in help.
