Perhaps they did. She was interviewed in June and died in October.

For all we know, she may have been given a full two months worth of food. How many pounds of food is that? Sixty pounds of rice, let's say, just to pick a number.

How much food did the interviewer have? Even if the interviewer had 600 pounds of food to give her, would you expect that she would eat while others around her starve? Or would she share with the ten people she most cared about?

Even if she chose not to share, others may have taken her food by force. Whatever the case, it is easy to imagine that any food she got would last only two months. That would leave two months of starvation to end her life.

Most Americans are very ignorant of just how much work goes into creating the immense amount of food that we assume will always be in our supermarkets. Those same Americans are constantly supporting policies which threaten the ability to create and deliver that food at prices almost everyone here can afford.

I truly believe that what happens in North Korea CAN HAPPEN HERE! It only requires that we adopt their practices.

No kidding. One accurate EMP attack and 99.9% of this country will look like her. And in about 8 months (we have more blubber to start with), 90% of the country will suffer her fate.

We only live as we do thanks to our military - lose that protection and NOTHING ELSE MATTERS. We can have all the amnesty we want, government-run health care, green jobs, Social Security, etc. - doesn’t matter.
