35. Yes. But back then the federalization of AFDC did help in poorer
states because they were subsidized by wealthier states and could then pay at least a "living" assistance to their people. I happened to live in one of the richer states so we did not see visible changes for ourselves but we knew that our brothers and sisters in other states could finally survive. It was a time when we still believed in being our siblings keeper. A time when we all worked together. We are definitely in a time of that kind of need now.
