. . .there are approximately 1.5 million households in Texas drawing food stamps? . . .that Texas issued $5.45 billion in food stamps in 2010? . . . that an additional 696,000 households are eligible for food stamps? . . . that the department measures its success by how many new families it signs up? . . . that if the additional eligible families are signed up, it will cost the taxpayer an added $2.5 billion?
Oh well, what's another billion or two? We have plenty of money.
