    That is the real problem with "Big Government." Only a small percentage of what is spent actually goes to serve the alleged purpose.

      I was on Food Stamps, briefly, many years ago. That was back when it was not looked at the same easy way it is today. I was always embarrassed to use them, but never got any comments or even dirty looks. It was only my personal feeling that I did not like to be on the dole. Too often that personal repugnance to being on the dole is absent.
