Something else to thank George W. Bush for. . .

"No, George, for this to work right, you've got to turn around and bend over."
USDA partnering with Mexico to boost food stamp participation.
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.”
The partnership — which was signed by former USDA Secretary Ann M. Veneman and Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs Luis Ernesto Derbez Bautista in 2004 — 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.

Well Zero expanded the food stamp state to now 48 million. Huge boost from 2008. And the propaganda ministry is nowhere again. Plus Zero ILLEGALLY destroying Welfare Reform, now one doesn't have to prove looking for work. Where's the Congress? All this dependency on big government by design of course.

Why limit the assistance to Mexican nationals in the U.S.? If we really want to be compassionate we should extend the benefit to everyone in Mexico too. Hell, how about the whole effing global community while we are at it.

That's the general idea. You've nailed it!

Redistribution on a global scale. A GLOBAL scale, let that sink in...

But there's no conspiracy or anything like that. So they keep telling us. And then in their videos, they tell the real story about who they are and what the really want to do, to you, your kids and your country because you see they aren't loyal to America and freedom, they are loyal to Marx.

Period.

But MSM won't report it.....And it isn't a conspiracy or anything like that......

Right.

I’m one of the last small farmers in my community. Agriculture has changed so much in the last 20 years that it is unrecognizable when compared to the farms we had 40-50 years ago.

Less than 2% of our population is considered farmers but the real numbers are around ½%!

The powers to be want us to feed Mexico but Mexico has some of the best farm land in the world and they also have 2 growing seasons compared to our 1!

Mexico also has some of the best fishing rights in the world; add in their vast natural resources they are one of the riches countries in the world.

So why do so many Mexicans want to come here?

Anonymous of 3:32pm, I've asked some Mexicans in the US that question. The answer is always, "It's true, God has blessed Mexico with these things, we have abundant farmland, petroleum, coal, even gold and silver mines, but our government is corrupt and our lying thieving politicians take everything for themselves and their cronies and leave the rest of us with nothing."

And Mexico is the place where a too-loud political activist, who gets too annoying, can get a visit at two in the morning from narco-cartel hitmen, so it's easier and safer to cross the river and come here.
