Mayor Cory Booker to live on food stamps for a week

Namo, I'm really glad to hear that.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Reduced crime rates to their lowest point in over fifty years, for one thing...

"This thread has inspired me to locate a local diaper bank, I didn't even know such things existed."

Me too...I was completely in the dark.

If the citizens of Newark didn't like him, why do so many take part in conversations with him on Twitter about actual city services?

That meme plays out too. The reality show Brick City covered that angle.

Diapers are a big issue for a poor mom- disposables are expensive and cloth diapers can present huge logistics problems- especially since poor families are way less likely to have their own washing machine.

Diapers can cost $30-40 a week.

Diapers can cost $30-40 a week.

Yes, and many poor families without reliable access to transportation have to buy their diapers from smaller convenience stores/bodegas, where diapers are usually more expansive than at a supermarket or superstore. And as Joe and JerseyGirl have pointed out, there are zero public assistance programs that provide diapers. Private charities and churches make up most of the burden there.

For those interested in locating and/or donating to a diaper bank, you can follow the link below to find the closest one to you.
