The application for $32 billion in airline grants is shorter than most SNAP applications





It's much easier for an airline exec to apply for $32 billion in bailout money than for a random poor person to apply for food stamps. It's amazing, the airline application for billions in assistance is mostly 'what's your name and where can I send the check?' The application for food stamps requires 12 pages (or more) of detailed personal financial records.







SNAP application forms

12 pages plus 10 pages of instructions
