It isn't silly, it is sensible.
It would deliver far more benefit for a far smaller expense.
So what is you angle?
BTW, who said anything about vouchers? A friend of mine calculated that it would cost less to give ALL Americans free food courtesy of the USDA who acquired said food at subsidized commodity prices than it would to continue the food stamp program. A simple pallet of rice, beans etc in front of every grocery store, all free.
The only caveat was that folks would use this free food to feed livestock if there were no safeguards.
