Im sure a good number of those people are off because they don't have jobs. The fact that the article compares unemployed of 2017 v 2011 and not pre v post job requirement encourages that. So we're not helping people yet.

None of this is about helping people.

yes it is, it's about lighting a fire under their asses to find work and not need food stamps. Its also about helping the working class by not having freeloaders siphon their money.

People without jobs who partake in state job training programs keep their SNAP benefits.

And then never have to worry about food again. Win-win.

that 15% of the freeloaders actually decided to work for their gibs is the surprising part

Remember that old saying?
......you don't work, you don't eat.
It's about time to apply that to every state.

Is this full time jobs? Or part time work? What's the hours a week cut off required for stamps?

Many already work, just under the table. So they got benefits and pay.
