In ancient Rome, the corn dole, or "annona," was a program that provided free or subsidized grain to eligible citizens. Eligibility for the corn dole was generally limited to Roman citizens who demonstrated a certain level of need, such as those who were poor, unemployed, or otherwise unable to afford basic sustenance. However, the specific requirements and criteria for eligibility may have varied over time and depending on local policies.

Did the Roman empire spend too much of its resources on the poorm thus drawing away precious funds for the empire?

The Romans did not spend too much for the poor. The only major item of expenditure on the poor was the grain dole for the poor in the city of Rome. This expenditure was brought under control by Julius Caesar and Augustus who redefined who was eligible. The Romans spent much more money for maintaining the army and paying the salaries of the soldiers.

Augustus was a fine ruler. At his own expense he relieved a food famine in Rome. And, in order to keep welfare under control, he reduced the list of people on the corn dole.
