Aid agencies already are feeling the pinch. Susie Ivy at the Center for Family Services (the Cobb nonprofit helping Brooke and Solomon) says the center expects to serve 1,450 families this fall, compared to last year's 1,100. The Atlanta Community Food Bank, which provides dozens of metro groups with food for needy families, issued an alarm last month that its cupboards were nearly running bare.

"We have never seen what we're seeing now," says Bill Bolling, the food bank's executive director. "I'm having people call me who are saying, 'I have donated to the food bank for a number of years, and I'm embarrassed to say that I need help now.'"

Wonder how many of them have cable tv....
