Food Stamps and Pink Slips!

Many of the teachers and faculty at Los Angeles High School of the Art might be loosing their jobs by the end of the school year. I wonder how New York is paying for their teachers and expanding the eligibility for more families to receive Food Stamps in such bad economy. On March 1, 2009 Commissioner David A. Hansell believes that it is right for many more families to receive food stamps and provided their families with food, but what happens to our teachers who might be loosing their job. Does that mean they will have to apply for Food Stamps too? A solution to this problem would be to use the money to provide more jobs therefore many can start buying their food and forget about food Stamps. I believe that providing food stamps for the most needy is a mandatory entitlement, but I believe that an education should also be something mandatory because it is something that we all benefit form and everyone pays for. Ironic we all pay for it but not all benefit, in this case our teachers.
