Why does the US have to feed everybody in the world?

I’m sure the Democrats have their “starving” children and old folks ready to go for their media blitz that’s sure to follow.

The most effective way to stop world hunger is to kill every Islamic Terrorist on the planet.

The only thing that will starve is the communist wealth redistribution racket.

But wait a minute....I thought Obama eradicated hunger and poverty, among other things such as lowering the sea levels?

I’m tired of caring for the health and welfare of the worlds populace.They should learn to care for themselves while our government allows us to care for ourselves by not stealing our income.

I wonder if the general public is naïve enough to still believe these “Republicans are starving children and the elderly” stories after 30+ years of the press describing any cut to the budget as Armageddon? Children and the elderly are going to do just fine under Trump’s budget.

Americans feeding Africans for free means small African farmers can’t make any money growing crops - so they don’t bother to develop their land, infrastructure, or develop local markets.

Our government’s stupidity often causes far more hardship beyond the silly “good intentions” they have.

IOW - those that work, pay mortgage, take care of family have to pay for those that don’t? It’s either tribal warfare or government civil war ... it’s been like that for decades.

The social safety net is more like the La Brea tar pit then it is a safety net.

People fall into it and are never able to get out. I would submit that the “war on poverty” has caused more damage to society then any other government program. Whole generations have been condemned to life in poverty because the system is rigged to keep them there.

“While all segments of the U.S. population are affected by obesity, one of the common myths that exists is that all or virtually all low-income people are far more likely to be obese”

OH MY GOSH!!! How dare the United States not feed every human in the World....oh those poor, poor people that have to starve to death...they will be skin and bones in hours...

B.S. We are Americans, and We have had enough of taking care of the world, what is the rest of the world doing besides killing each other off, or bribing everyone for money, or going around thinking your important and giving away things in America that belong to AMERICANS!!!

Your Country Your People Take care of them yourself!!!

Unless its money for missile defense I don’t even want the military to get more money. Let Germany defend itself from Lichtenstien by itself.
