OPINION!!

Corbett Coddles the Rich and Gas Companies While Making Life More Difficult for the Poor: The Food Stamp Asset Test is Downright Cruel (State Sen. Jim Ferlo) from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette
"It is outrageous that Pennsylvania plans to remove from the food stamp rolls individuals under age 60 with more than $2,000 in savings or other assets and individuals over 60 with $3,250 or more. With this cold-hearted declaration, the Corbett administration is proving, once again, that it simply does not care about the needs of Pennsylvania's elderly and poor."
