With all these food and nutrition programs in place, why are American citizens falling through the cracks of hunger, nutrition, and need? Why is the nation as a whole deemed obese?
As liberals complain that people are going hungry and the first lady transforms the school lunch fare to healthy offerings nobody seems to like, the federal government is spending plenty on domestic food assistance to provide food for the hungry and other vulnerable populations in this country.
According to the Congressional Research Service, there are many agencies that offer food assistance to the needy in this country, citizens, non-citizens, and illegals.
The U.S. Department of Agricultures Food and Nutrition Service (USDA-FNS) offers many programs recently reauthorized by the 2014 farm bill called the Agricultural Act of 2014:
There’s a simple cure against being “Food Insecure”. GET A FRIGGIN’ JOB! It’s not MY job to feed you.
I was just thinking today....Americans EAT TOO MUCH....it’s just a fact...and those that make US pay to FEED THEM....and are considered “food insecure” ...well...they eat too much also...except maybe some of the children whose parents NEGLECT THEM. We have a NEGLECT problem...not a FOOD problem.
I guess this is how they deal with the obvious idiocy of having massive government programs to deal with "hunger" among people who haven't weighed less than 300 pounds since they were 15 years old.
This is a UN term adopted by our government globalist Marx hopefuls.
