En parte por la crisis, pero también porque hay algunos abonados al sistema (Change!… 34 Million Americans Now On Food Stamps):
For the first time, more than 34 million Americans received food stamps, which help poor people buy groceries, government figures said on Thursday, a sign of the longest and one of the deepest recessions since the Great Depression
Enrollment surged by 2 percent to reach a record 34.4 million people, or one in nine Americans, in May, the latest month for which figures are available.
It was the sixth month in a row that enrollment set a record. Every state recorded a gain in participation from April. Florida had the largest increase at 4.2 percent.
Food stamp enrollment is highest during times of economic stress. The U.S. unemployment rate of 9.5 percent is the highest in 26 years.
Y contando.

Hay un movimiento de gente que propone que cuba se incorpore como parte del estado español, como una comunidad autónoma más. No lo sabía, están en facebook y tienen muchos seguidores tanto cubanos como españoles. Esgrimen sus razones, lo encontré curioso y quise compartirlo con vosotros.

La Habana en ruinas. En el teatro que sale ahí, cantó Caruso….. hay otros vídeos, pero para qué.
