Transcription

TRANSCRIPTION: We have preserved the safety net for the people with true needs country $85 and food stamps when I used to get 76 so they cut me right in half there. That leaves me twelve dollars and fifty cents for the month to eat. It's a little hard to take. I just want enough to get along. That's all I ask. We have no thought of throwing people out into the snow away. Is America back. Or can we do better Mondale for president? Point.
