We don't get assistance because the state has certain rules about being able to trespass in your home at any time if you get food stamps or Medicaid. I don't want to give up my rights for a meal check when I can do it, albeit hard, with out it. I would rather have oatmeal, beans and rice, or found foods forever than give up my rights to keep people out of my home. They call them "welfare checks" to make sure your not too distressed, but often they lead to the state running your life.
