An average American family of four receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, gets $713 per month, according to Newsweek.

And when it comes to our military personnel, a veteran who has a 50% disability rating with a spouse and one child gets $1,255.16 per month, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs. When one more child under the age of 18 is added, the family gets another $51 per month for a total of $1,306.16 per 30 days, which is $100 less than an alien family on the new prepaid card program.
