People going hungry? Who’s to say? We don’t ask anymore, even as food banks report record demand.

Edit: there is now an NYT article about this as well
They’re cancelling it now because they expect food insecurity to get considerably worse in the next few years.
“We’re not asking because we don’t care what the answer is.”
We know it’s gonna be bad and we want to hide that
That’ll get rid of hunger the same way they stopped reporting COVID infections stopped COVID
Didn’t researchers find that people getting repeated cases of COVID were seeing long term compounding issues with cognitive decline?
A.K.A. Repeated COVID cases equals more GOP voters created.
Yep, shaving off of up to three IQ points each time. More likely in cases of unvacinated infections.
Overly politicized? Whiskey tango foxtrot? How can FACTS about how many people aren’t getting their basic needs be politicized? Wanting people to stay alive is political now? How are the clowns in the government this blatantly, cartoonishly evil? We’re expected to respect “different opinions” when one side’s “opinion” is some people don’t deserve to live but they call themselves pro-life
If it makes conservatives/ Republicans / Taco and their terrible ideology and policies look bad, that’s “political”.
Didn’t you know? Reality has a liberal bias.
“I don’t want to know about all the suffering I’m causing!”
So… Are there any independent watchdogs keeping track of all the damage he’s doing? So that we can reverse this asap should we somehow manage to get someone at least milquetoast back in?
Trickle down economics is just a golden shower on the poor. This final stage is from a gold plated child rapist that some worship as a sun god.
More conservative and Republican cancel culture.
well yeah. it should be politicized. if ur policy causes hunger ur a piece of shit, an enemy of the people and ur literally not doing ur job as a politician/party. Politicize that shit.
politics? Not here in politics town, says politics man.
I’d hate it if my government did anything political. Politics has no place in government, we’d best leave it for the politicians.
It’s like people who don’t want chemicals in their food.
Everything is
chemicalspolitics.
I read “Annual Hunger…” and I thought it said Hunger Games for a moment and I WTFed at it.
But then again, we’re not that far off from panem.
May the odds ever be in your favor…
Reports are not just to confirm that good times are still good… They’re for detecting and observing the bad times.
Politicized?
Politically inconvenient for the regime that cuts food aid, school meals, etc.
