Food stamps and foot steps are both real things. We are clearly talking about a pun on "foot steps" as well as "food stamps", while using "foot steps" alone would loose the pun, it could work with the "food stamps" approach, but then the pun gets slightly obscure. For this pun to be obvious, I think "foot stamps" is the correct spelling here. --SvipTalk 00:03, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
