I would think low income people would have a harder time keeping up with medical things

You are correct... diabetics can purchase edible glucagon which is 100 time as expensive as conventional sugar and digests twice as fast... however I just eat twice as much sugar in an emergency and profit!!! :-)

Diabetics do need to be registered in order to get medicines and supplies and we are used to that sort of thing, so I agree it wouldn't be a huge issue for diabetics to tick a box when registering for food stamps to receive a special concession for candy or soda... that or they could present an old script for insulin because we have plenty of those too.
