People are addicted to convenience!Yeah, that's a hackneyed mantra spouted by lefties when confronted with the fact that so many of the poor are fat. No, healthy food is not more expensive, though what you might call lazy food is.You're right...............you CAN buy a burger in America for around a dollar.
However........................that burger has a lot of unhealthy consequences, and one of them is obesity. Another one is diabetes, because that 1 dollar hamburger has a lot of unhealthy consequences.
Did you know that buying healthy food (such as fresh veggies and fresh meat) is more expensive than buying the processed crap that the corporations put out?
Might want to check into it sometime.
Google can be your friend (or any other search engine).

Healthy Food Isn't Necessarily More Expensive Than Junk Food, Study Finds
Tell ya what.................try to cook a healthy meal for a family of 3 (Father, Mother and 1 Child) for less than what you could fill them up on Mickey D's, or Burger King.
I'm guessing you can't, because fresh fruit, veggies and fresh meat are more expensive than the processed crap you get at a fast food venue.
Yeah................I compared them, and yeah, it's cheaper to eat at some fast food place than it is to cook my own, because the prices are high, and most people nowadays are addicted to convenience.
Can't you just say they're fucking lazy. America has one of the lowest food cost per person in the world and fresh produce is not expensive. Poor people are fat because they have bad nutritional habits and many are lazy. Providing them with EBT cards is throwing fuel on a fire. Then, of course, we have to foot the bill for diabetes and other fat-related diseases which invariably develop. Brilliant!
Thoughts?
Apparently, food stamps are Bad and Wrong. Minimum wage is fine as is - or maybe we should end it. There aren't enough jobs, and no training is being offered that a destitute person can afford.
In the real world, what is your solution to hunger in the USA.
Maybe there should be facilities like prisons, but only for poor people. To run such a place would likely cost more than welfare - but it is a thought. People would be fed, clothed, and sheltered, which is more security than many of them have now.

It was never the Federal Governments job to "feed" the people. Charities and local Governments can fill the need.
Vets as well? Soldier's families?

Well the charities are not rising to the occasion

if you cant afford a family....then don't have one. I don't care if they are military or not.
People who say that tend to be opposed to abortion. Allow abortion if you don't want people to have families they can't afford.
Eagle, they haven't trickled down since Reagan invented the term. It's a fallacy.
There is no such thing as trickle-down economics.
What "hunger" in the US? The biggest health problem for poor people is obesity. This thread is based on reverse "logic" which defines hunger by the number of food stamp recipients. Why not define "hearing impaired" by the number of free cell phones?
Undernourishment in adults is caused by drug addiction and/or mental illness. In children, it is caused by parental neglect.
You can buy a hamburger for $1 almost anywhere in America.

If they could have filled the need, then the government would not have needed to get involved.

oh honey....i would force abortion on anyone who came up pregnant while on entitlements....right along with a mandatory sterilization of the baby daddy.
so try again, you are barking up the wrong tree with that one.

Love these threads
It shows the leftist disdain for the family or any option except more government.
fyi; food banks are only allowed to help a family once a month for a max of 6 times in a year.
b/c of gov regs
Lest we forget, Food Stamps are designed to force people to spend money on groceries instead of other non-essentials. Otherwise we could just give them more money.
