Come on Simon, you know better then that. You must know that there are hungry families in your town and I'd bet that there are kids going to bed hungry too. Hunger is a terrible thing.

  Possibly, walden, but not because of food shortages. Mom or Dad may have needed beer and cigarettes instead.

    I know that you've heard some stories about folks having to choose between oil and food or prescriptions and food.

      Yes and crack for food and lottery tickets for food and twinkies for food and chips for food and pig skins for food, etc.
      I've heard of all those but I don't know anyone who ever had to make that choice. I see them in the food court carrying Nike boxes and their pants around their knees eating a slice of pizza.
      Maybe you know some ...

        You said you see "them." Who is them and how do you know just by looking at "them" that they spend money on crack and lottery tickets?
        It sounds like you may have an aversion to the urban style of dress that kids are doing now. It's just how kids dress these day.
        Personally, I'd rather wrongly have someone buy crack then have some kid go hungry. No doubt there are many people taking advantage.

        what about the kid going hungry because the parents are buying crack instead of preforming their parental responsibilities

        Do you think you have to ask anyone that question? Duh, it's as wrong as wrong is itself.

        yes because when you really look into why MOST(NOTE MOST NOT ALL) of these kids are going hungry its irresponsible choices made by the parents beacuse the parents have been brought up to think the govt will take care of it.

        I'm not little or bitter. There are many many many ways to get a meal in this country if you need one.
        States spend a lot more buying food for kids than they spend for books. Send your kids to school where they belong and they will be fed.
        I may be a troll ...
