If the government must give these people food stamps so they can live... They don't. Where I live, GDP/capita adjusting for PPP is less than what you'd make earning $8.25/hour at walmart working 20 hours/week with no govt benefits of any kind. There is no mass die-off. (Note: my numbers are adjusted for cost of living. So don't tell me that "it's cheaper here" - I'm taking that into account. Unlike the US poor, people here live in crowded apartments, take shared transport to work, and learn to survive without 24/7 water.) You are simply wrong. The government is subsidizing poor people's consumption, not walmart.
