I wonder, in a country where death by starvation is pretty much zero, how long it will take it to increase to tens of millions? The assumption being that NO FOOD STAMPS + TIME = STARVATION.
Back in the day I remember no food stamps and hunger, but not starvation.
I've often wondered at the economics of the modern traffic corner panhandlers from foreign countries plying their craft, what resources were available to them, to look non-starving as they worked to get window washing money. Found it difficult to believe that they could do more than get some food money doing the window washing gig, but then the question would seem to be where they stay? Just part of the general homeless population? And I am presuming they aren't smoking or snorting the cash they get on the corner as opposed to getting food.
