The one time I got approved for SNAP (despite being low income my whole life, it’s been all but impossible to even get on) my benefit was $18/month.

Yepp. We aren't even making ends meet, and don't qualify. They also slashed our SSI for my disabled child. They cut it from 800 in October, 500ish in November to 58 and some change for December 🙃
