For the hungry and oppressed, it should be comforting to know that compassion resides at the offices of the New York Times and CNN.

So, GATHER IN THE STREETS, STORM THE CONFINES AND DEMAND YOUR RIGHTFUL SHARE OF THEIR ILL-BEGOTTEN GAINS!!

It’s only right, you know.

Can anyone imagine it? Food banks put out free food, and lots of people come and get it. And then (gasp) they have shortages. What a shock. (smirk). My own area’s food pantries have reported shortages leading some to surmise that lots of people around the area are going hungry. Now I challenge anyone to visit western Wisconsin (not now, wait until it warms up) and find all these desperately hungry people. I believe you will most likely find the obverse.
