I know dozens of kids, at an Ivy League university, who are receiving food stamps. And that’s just the ones I know.

They have little income (they are students after all), they apply, they receive $300+/month - no questions asked.
The system is totally corrupt. The amount of people who it truly helps and are needy, is probably tiny
Big food comapanies such as General Foods, Kraft, etc are big donors to politicians and they love the EBT giveaway.
