#1 It's like building a small water well in an empty desert area.

You'll suddenly have hundreds (if not thousands) of folks camped around it.

#4 In the future, when the snappers shuffle off this mortal coil, their remains will be sent to the protein banks for recycling. So in a sense, you can look at this as a form of urban livestock farming.

To some, this may sound like cannibalism by proxy, but in fact their nutrients were paid for by the State and therefore belong to the State. After all, when they became part of SNAP, they literally became part of SNAP. Read the fine print.
tl;dr: SNAP is people!
