The Food Insecurity Lie

[GURPS]

President Joe Biden says 24 million Americans "suffer from food insecurity!"

News anchors were shocked that there is "food insecurity in the richest country in the world!" ABC hosts turned "insecurity" into "hunger."

But in my new video, Rachel Sheffield, who researches welfare policy at the Heritage Foundation, explains, "Food insecurity is not the same thing as hunger. It just means that they had to rely on cheaper foods, store-brand alternatives ... or reduce variety."

Really? The alarm about "food insecurity" is based on that? Well, yes. Even the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in its fine print, admits that "for most food-insecure households, the inadequacies were in the form of reduced quality and variety of food rather than insufficient quantity."

"They always want to create a crisis," I say to Sheffield.

"Government programs want to keep themselves going," she replies.

She's talking about the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; the Women, Infants and Children program; the National School Lunch Program and the other constantly growing handouts that make up America's welfare system.

Biden also said "by gawd, we need to send more money to Ukraine! And to Gaza!" (probably)

And I would bet my last dollar that the so called "Food Insecurities" is brought on my grocery stores closing their doors and moving out of neighborhoods where shoplifting and looters are stealing everything and never prosecuted when they're caught.

If you really needed to not spend a lot of money on food, rice, dried beans, peanut butter are the way to go. It might not be the tastiest. But I bet it's 100% tastier than not eating anything.

Which boomerangs back to why some people are poor. You're poor because you make terrible life choices. It's difficult to have money for food when cigs, booze & keno are the first 3 things on your grocery list.

Lettuce, cabbage, celery, potatoes, and bananas are cheap.

So, a couple of things:

Most kids in this country who are "food insecure", it's because their daddies have long hit the road and their crack whore mommies spend all their money on drugs instead of groceries.

Also there's the problem of "food deserts" or whatever they're calling it when the locals are so violently criminal that grocery stores pack up and leave the hood.

As BOP already mentioned, we as a nation could easily feed hungry children but our Democrat overlords send all that money to corrupt foreign dictators instead. To "fight their wars".

Think what we could do with all the money we piss away on bullshit.

Remember years ago when Americans were called lazy for not doing normal things .? Now you have people to shop for you. Deliver whatever you need. At a cost of course.

How much extra money would you have for those quality items if you didn't pay extra to get them. It was nice during covid but that's been over for 2 yrs.

I know people that have to travel 20 miles to a grocery store, nobody cares about those people though, many are quite poor. I can't imagine out west where the distances between people can be even bigger.
