I like this. Purge the rolls of freeloaders and keep the people who genuinely need food stamps. There are far too many single people without any dependents who have been getting something for nothing:
"After Maine Gov. Paul LePage's administration began enforcing work requirements in October 2014, the number of able-bodied adults receiving food aid fell from about 12,000 people to 2,680 in March 2015.
Two-thirds of Wisconsin residents subject to work rules that took effect last spring were dropped from the rolls three months later for failing to comply.
A similar pattern may already be taking shape elsewhere. In Mississippi, where the end of a statewide work waiver affected about 75,000 people this month, the state Department of Human Services says just 20% of people have been showing up for scheduled appointments."
