...Food Stamps is not donated by any stretch of the imagination - it is coerced from the productive workers and businesses under threat of force (fines, imprisonment, all all that sort of violent stuff). Resist and they come looking for you, resist more and they will kill you...

You've got it twisted, if employers paid their workers a living wage there would be no need for foodstamps.

Aren't Foodstamps for the unemployed, or is it for people on low income, or both?

They're for both as far as I know, McDonald's employees in the US working full time still have to use foodstamps just to feed their families. So basically the government is subsidising the poverty wages of greedy corporations.
