This is the same Republican stance they take which leads to gov't shutdowns and the same press malpractice in covering it. All the more reason to use care in selecting sources for news and to toss the GOP on Nov 3.

In my small town there are 3 regular food distribution centers that hand out food packages several times a week. People line up in cars to wait for food, making the scene appear to be different from the bread lines during the great depression. It is the similarities, however, that shine through. People are hurting. Those lines get longer each week. Meanwhile, republicans are preparing their old cocktail of mendacious deficit-reduction concerns to be dragged out in full if they lose in November. They don't care about those hurting people, even if so many of them are wearing red hats. I have seen almost no news coverage of these breadlines, which surely exit in every town.
