And, of course, that economic panacea Texas – as asserted by Rick Perry – leads the way.
Texas had the most food-stamp recipients in August, at 4.12 million, followed by California with 3.82 million, according to the USDA. Spending was a record $6.13 billion.
Quite an accomplishment considering that the oft maligned “liberal-basket-case” California has more than 12 million more people.
