Via Zero Hedge, the September SNAP numbers are out and quite depressing.
Some 42.9 million Americans are now on the program, up half a million from August and of course a new record. The montly cost (also a record) of $6.6 billion for the month. A full 5% of the US population is now on SNAP compared to when the recession began in December 2007.
The misery continues.
