Why are people hungry, because they choose to be. A few years ago I did a little experiment just to see how hard it was to get a meal. I spent one month in the summer paid $0 for food and ate 3 meals a day. Typically the Salvation Army handled one or two meals a day. There was another religious organization, that had a breakfast program for the homeless. I may have had to listen to a sermon or wash a few dishes, but I ate and no begging or 'dumpster diving'. I got the idea from another program they have in Texas where kids (under 18) can show up at various locations and get breakfast and lunch for free during the summer. There were those that complained about the program because they would not delivery to the kids houses.

  No, no, no. The U.S.D.A. says we have no "hungry" people in the U.S. However, they do admit there are some Americans who are "nutritionally challenged". ;-)
