Fine - you see food stamps as, "huge expansion of unsustainable social programs and temporary fixes."

I see them as, indeed, economic stimulus. Food stamps for the number of people on them now will not have to be sustained and are not intended as a permanent expansion of the program (given as the economy recovers); and I gave my argument for the many long-term benefits of what you dismiss as a "temporary fix".
