CL’d re: screwing over poor and hungry children…

We do all these various things here: Coat drives, shoe drives, school supply drives. I have a friend who organizes a huge purse and jewelry sale that raises funds to help low income schools around the city. Low income kids do get meals at school here.

I have another friend who works with various groups to keep kids fed when school isn’t in session. (Lots of kids get one solid meal at school and that’s it, so when school isn’t in session, they are struggling for ANY meal.)

How is it that we’ve come to “Fuck you if you’re poor, starve?”

There just isn’t the proper words for how angry and frustrated this makes me every God Damn day. I can’t handle it.
