Trump Administration Cancels Annual Hunger Survey | The government has been measuring food insecurity since the mid-1990s but now says the report has become ‘overly politicized’

Yet they call themselves pro-life. They're pro-birth, but once you're born fuck you.

Something something, "pro-life", something something. We've been here before, you all know how to fill in the blanks.

Democrats haven't been so keen on addressing hunger. They refuse to address livable wages and keep bandaid solutions like food banks and charity.

theres only one party that thinks hunger is a political issue.

True. But it's not the one you think. 🇨🇳

the regressive party strikes again

We're going to see soaring poverty in red states, with government officials saying the lazy stupid people are at fault and we're better off without them.

We're going to see soaring poverty in blue states, with government officials saying they just don't have permission or money or professional capacity to do anything and they're just really sorry about it. Thoughts and prayers.

And then we're going to hear how bad things wouldn't be happening if you'd just voted for the correct party, despite neither party dominant state seeming to have any solution, save to accelerate mortality among the lower classes.

They're cancelling it now because they expect plan to make food insecurity to get considerably worse in the next few years.

It's almost like the largest employee in the country has had massive politically-motivated layoffs performed plus the entire economy upended with a slapdash constantly changing patchwork of import taxes on top of everything else currently at play to prevent economic growth

We know it's gonna be bad and we want to hide that

Oh. They do care.

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.

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.

Honestly, I think it would be easier to just start over. There is a lot of systemic cruft from countless generations of ingrained politics and politicians, that have been strangling the possibility of effective reform. Until massive sea changes like getting rid of First Past the Post, Electoral College, and so forth has been done, things will just keep getting crappier.

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 chemicals politics.
