Got email about gov.assistance..made me lol

Section 8 housing is only available to people that have children, senior citizen on SSI or retirement through SSI department. College students, Young adults with no children even if they are unemployed and their status is homeless do not qualify for government assistance through housing, unless they are found to be disabled and/ or have a specific classified under SSI qualifications mental disorder that impairs their ability to hold, obtain,and/ or prevents them from employment.how I know this been there done asked for assistance both through housing and state food stamps offices. Government assistance is however available for foreigners, and immagrant workers. I also know that government medical assistance is denied to Young adults with no children ,person's who are homeless, and recently released from prison and/ or county jails.
