There is not one rule that says everyone must eat everyday in NYC, but how
many starved to death in New York City in 1899?
Who said that Communism was so great? A country that provides food assistance isn't exactly Communist, if that is supposed to be your point? Actually, hunger in America was a big problem as recently as the 1960s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h94bq4JfMAA.
Hunger as a norm for millions in America suggests more shame than greatness.
Thank you, Wonkette, for reminding us. I suggest that people who think that America has solved its 'poverty' problem watch the video, even if it is hard to watch. Even with the late Charles Kuralt narrating!
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
