For those among us that do need food stamps, don't forget that churches (at least in the south, I assume everywhere else too) give out food, usually on Saturday mornings - canned and boxed goods. People turned to the churches in times of need.
For those of us not on food stamps, consider giving donations to your local churches this month and beyond, I'm sure the demand is about to go up.
Edit to add, some of us here not on food stamps might be in the future. As businesses lose income because consumers are tightening their wallets and their belts, companies may lay off, some of us may lose our jobs and NEED some form of assistance ourselves in the future. This shutdown could drag on for some time.
I do agree with this. Before food stamps became a thing, churches took care of people. That also brought people more to religion. Now government takes care of them, and that brings people more to the government and away from religion. If churches take care of people again, people will turn more to religion again.

Sadly as long as the illegals are on it it wont have enough.
