We need this badly. The existence of domestic hunger costs the United States $90 billion every year it continues to exist. We have to stamp out this social problem; it is bringing us all down, and we are all paying for it.

With all due respect, mpaone, you are a moron. “Domestic hunger”! I just read yesterday that Mississippi, one of the poorest states has the highest rate of obesity. The notion that we have any substantial problem with hunger in the US is BS!
