Actually that is false...food stamps do not exist anymore...they have switched over to using debit cards to prevent the trading or selling of food stamps.

While I know mist of these monies are handed out notionally by the state, its the fed that mostly collects it and writes all the policies about how it is spent. Section 8 and HUD don't maintain basic living standards in rentals. People routienly sell or trade their food stamps. Its insane and out of control.
