Feds enroll Mexican citizens in food stamp program



Bi-Partisan Socialism  -  Both parties work together to put the citizens of Mexico on American food stamps
  • Starting in 2004 under a GOP Congress and President, both parties have worked together to grow welfare and food stamps.
  • American corporations eagerly fight to suck on the public teat.


FOOD STAMP NATION  -  The Marxist re-distribution of America's wealth has branched out to the citizens of Mexico.
.
The Mexican government has been working with the United States Department of Agriculture to increase participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), or food stamps.

USDA has an agreement with Mexico to promote American food assistance programs, including food stamps, among Mexican Americans, Mexican nationals and migrant communities in America.

“USDA and the government of Mexico have entered into a partnership to help educate eligible Mexican nationals living in the United States about available nutrition assistance,” the USDA explains in a brief paragraph on their “Reaching Low-Income Hispanics With Nutrition Assistance” web page. “Mexico will help disseminate this information through its embassy and network of approximately 50 consular offices,” reports the Daily Caller.

The partnership with Mexico was signed by former Republican USDA Secretary Ann M. Veneman and Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs Luis Ernesto Derbez Bautista in 2004.  The agreement sees to it that the Mexican Embassy and Mexican consulates in America provide USDA nutrition assistance program information to Mexican Americans, Mexican nationals working in America and migrant communities in America. The information is specifically focused on eligibility criteria and access.
.
The goal, for USDA, is to get rid of enrollment obstacles and increase access among potentially eligible populations by working with arms of the Mexican government in America.




Some of the materials the USDA encourages the Mexican government to use to educate and promote the benefit programs are available free online for order and download.

A partial list of materials include English and Spanish brochures titled “Five Easy Steps To Snap Benefits,” “How To Get Food Help — A Consumer’s Guide to FNCS Programs,” “Ending Hunger Improving Nutrition Combating Obesity,” and posters with slogans like “Food Stamps Make America Stronger.”    (Daily Caller)


Corporations want Welfare

The number of businesses approved to serve prepared foods and accept food stamps grew by a third from 2005 to 2010, U.S. Department of Agriculture records show, as vendors from convenience and dollar discount stores to gas stations and pharmacies increasingly joined the growing entitlement program.
.
Now, restaurants, which typically have not participated in the program, are lobbying for a piece of the action.
.
Louisville-based Yum! Brands, whose restaurants include Taco Bell, KFC, Long John Silver's and Pizza Hut, is trying to get restaurants more involved, federal lobbying records show.
.
Between 2005 and 2010, the number of businesses certified to cash in food stamps went from about 156,000 to nearly 209,000, according to USDA data.
.
The National Restaurant Association supports their members being able to fully suck on the public teat.
