Welfare Recipients Forced to Sell Food Stamps to Buy Basic Necessities

A new investigation from ColorLines Magazine supported by the Nation Institute's Investigative Fund shows that some poor families are forced to sell their food stamps on the black market for cash in order to survive this prolonged recession. We speak to journalist Seth Wessler, whose investigation focuses on the impact of both the recession and welfare reform in Hartford, Connecticut, a state which has the shortest welfare time limit in the United States. We"re also joined by Luz Santana, a veteran community organizer and welfare rights activist who heads the advocacy group Vecinos Unidos. Ref. Source 3

It is sad that so many have this crutch. Then when you take into consideration how much food is thrown into the garbage in America for no reason other that they don't want to give it away for free, it gets even sadder. Every single time I swipe my food stamp card I cringe a little.
