DY – you live in a very small daled amos.
ZD never said the word widespread, he shouldn’t have to defend it. I have been told by friends living there that there IS a very real problem with hunger and malnutrition but I did not ask for numbers or community names. I just know that if it was someone else who brought it up here, it wouldn’t have been jumped on.
Any one who thinks that there is food in everyones fridge because WIC exists is naive. WIC is for people who have children 5 and under and are low enough income. There are huge numbers of families who are not low income, by definition, but have no many left after expenses and their fridges are EMPTY. They’re children have garbage for lunch and they are HUNGRY.
Wish it wasn’t so, I know I do.
