An End to World Hunger

November 19, 2006 · Filed Under Getting Political 

The US Department of Agriculture has figured out how to get rid of hunger. They gave it a new name. Instead of hunger we now have ‘food insecurity’!

According to a recent USDA report, 11% of US households are ‘food insecure’. One has to assume that since they chose to rate households these figures don’t include homeless or people otherwise not living in a home, and so at an obviously higher risk of not eating well. This is a really unacceptable statistic for a country like the United States.

    This level of hunger would be unacceptable here too (don’t know what it is in UK) but should also be in any other country too. Sadly it is not the case.
