The #1 nutrition problem of the poor in America is OBESITY. Nobody starves in America unless they are insane or someone is starving them.
We have Huckabee also saying this....
“My comments were about the statistical reality that most single moms are very poor, under-educated, can't get a job, and if it weren't for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death.”
Really? How many starving children did we have here in America before welfare?

No sensible person likes a welfare state that is designed to keep the poor dependent on government largesse to ensure a voting base for some politician.
However, yes many children were (and still are) undernourished in this country before welfare. Sadly, many still are.
My parents lived through the great depression...they can tell stories.
