What? Lack of access to nutrious food leads to lack of nutrition? Amazing, the statistical non-causal link between the two. Common sense is proven again.

Fuck the people who starve kids and families in need. I hope that they feel the impact of their choices so hard that they rethink their choices.

That headline could have been worded better. Most people, I think, are going to roll their eyes as hard as I did at the apparent obviousness of that statement and never bother to read what the actual details are.

I hope in whatever universe happens after this one fizzles out, they don't have to release articles like "rigorous studies have shown small children starve when you refuse to feed them."

its weird how much the phrase 'conservatives lack empathy' can be applied to all the negative aspects of so many lives.
