The idea of food stamps is to give you food when you literally can't buy it yourself, not when you have a couple grand in your bank account.

- DarylZero 4y agoYeah it's a dumb idea. Making people spend down their savings when they have no income to pay for food.
- burntoutfire 4y agoWhat else are savings for then?
- DarylZero 4y agoWell if you only have $2.5k and no income it's probably going to housing costs. (Am I here to answer stupid questions...)
- seoaeu 4y agoThe idea of an emergency fund is for unexpected expenses like car repairs or a medical bill. The primary use of SNAP is to supplement an employed person’s income so they are able to afford food.
