We see too many people hungry in a country where food is abundantand too many working families living in shelters...

This is a HUGE Pet Peeve with me. Dogmatic politicians pretending that HUNGER is a major problem in this country. You want to know the true nutritional problem afflicting poor people? They eat too much and are too fat. Obesity is a big problem among lower class people because they don't know much about nutrition and eat gobs of sweet and fatty foods. And here comes Demagog Kerry to tell us that STARVATION is a problem. Hey, Kerry! Name ONE starving person in this country. I swear if I ever see Ketchup Boy on the campaign trail I will challenge him to name JUST ONE starving person in the U.S.A..

There is also the problem of "healthy" food being more expensive than junk food.
