The food stamp program doesn't "cost" anything. It's actually a good "investment". Every dollar spent on the food stamp program generates $1.84 into the economy in terms of economic activity. A 2002 George W. Bush-era USDA study which found that "Ultimately, the additional $5 billion of FSP (Food Stamp Program) expenditures triggered an increase in total economic activity (production, sales, and value of shipments) of $9.2 billion and an increase in jobs of 82,100," or $1.84 stimulus for every dollar spent. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supplem...stance_Program
