Yes, and retired people living on Social Security are not eligible (at least in DE). But then again, isn’t it government’s goal to kill off all the old people by the time they’re 70 years old? No benefits, but plenty of stealing money from workers’ wallets. Plus a steady base of political support for RATs.

Just wait until DeathCare kicks in; they’ll have 2 for 1 sales at funeral homes. Soylent Green factories shoot up.

Some states do allow retired people on Social Security to get Food Stamps, if they qualify on the basis of income, etc. I've seldom run into many who get any substantial amount, however. I'm not sure that I've talked to anyone who gets as much as $200 a month here in Texas.

People with children in their households, such as grandparents taking care of grandchildren, usually qualify for more than older adults living alone or older couples.
