Yes, clearly no one would engage a system they've never dealt with before in order to get $133 a month in benefits that they truly need. Who knows how people acquired experience with the system in the first place- maybe it's genetic. Also, clearly if you give food stamps to people who already can afford to eat, food prices will rise somehow- even though apparently they're only using it to buy food that they would have otherwise bought with their own money????
