Normally you do not collect food stamps on retirement. There are about 110M people on food stamps. 95M that collected their unemployment and are no longer in the workforce should be counted as unemployed.

The say you can torture statistics until they say anything you want them to say.

I hope Trump straightens that dishonest mess out and reports the real stats.

Of course you can get food stamps if your SS is low enough.
Don’t you remember obama hired people to go to retirement areas especially in Fla and sign people up, even when they said they did nit need SNAP?

He wanted to make sure they voted Dem

About 44 million are on food stamps. Among the 95 million who are not in the labor force, most are retirees who have not actively sought work nor have the become discouraged about finding work. So they shouldn’t be counted as unemployed.
