I don't know if this is US nationwide, or just in my state, but if you are convicted for any drug related crime, be it possession or sales, you can no longer obtain food stamps, general assistance(welfare), public housing, student loans, etc. I don't think it pertains to unemployment as that is an insurance type program.
Also, anyplace that is selling hot food on food stamps can get in trouble with USDA. I know one of the local supermarkets got busted selling hot items from the deli on food stamps, and they got a 30 day ban from the food stamp program. Losing food stamp business for a month about killed them.
