In its quest to promote taxpayer-funded entitlement programs, the Obama Administration has actually rewarded one state with a $5 million bonus for its efficiency in adding food-stamp recipients to already bulging rolls.

no mention of the White House rewarding states that reduce people on the dole....

Oregon Gets $5 Mil Bonus For Food Stamp Sign Up

This week Oregon officials bragged that the USDA has given the state $5 million in “performance bonuses” for ensuring that people eligible for food benefits receive them and for its “swift processing of applications.” The money comes on the heels of a separate $1.5 million award from the feds for making “accurate payments of food stamp benefits to clients."

Remind me again who runs the state government (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oregon) in Oregon? ::)

But getting more voters to re-elect you is relatively inexpensive, especially when our tax dollars are used for that purpose.

You always get more of anything you're willing to pay for.
