    The USDA has made the changes to account for inflation and economic changes. This is such a joke... $1 increase $2 increase up to a $5 increase is the best calculation to account for nothing less than $7+ increases amongst food and a $1 is suppose to be beneficial to the people on this program that truly need that help. These officials who determine this should be forced as part of their job requirement to live on these controlled budgets so they can make the greatest informed decisions on any increases/decreases in these programs. I'd love to see more available food options, such as... neighborhood gardens in empty lots, better/more food pantries, more church/shelter involvement. I'm not the only peon out here that can come up with ideas.. but most of you will just hide behind a bunch of ravaged comments. God don't like ugly!!!!
