What the -blam!- murica!?
Are seriously telling me that there are over 200 000 homeless kids in murica? That is messed up...
EDIT:
*Sigh* I looked into it... The actual number of of homeless children is actually over 1.5 MILLION... That is SICK!
That is just disgusting...

And instead of this being a talking point in elections people are more worried about legalizing gay marriage. Equal rights for all when there isn't a meal on every table. Hell, lots of kids don't even have tables, not to mention homes.

That's what happens when a nation is dependent and a corrupt entity dooms the economy.

With programs like welfare and food stamps (Among many others) draining productive people they are not willing to be as charitable, and with the cause of this drain (Government) destroying jobs and our monetary system there will be even more homeless.

Ehhhh I whilst you aren't wrong, I'd focus the blame on the bastard bankers who do this to people rather than food stamps. I don't necessarily agree with endless free handouts, the amount in the USA seems to be crazy (From what I've heard from a friend over there, not researched much myself)

Don't listen to Camnator, he's an idiot. He claims to hate government yet he aligns himself with what Tea Party members say almost all the time. He's not someone to take seriously. Food stamps aren't a handout, they help people in need. To want to abolish that is akin to taking food out of a child's mouth.
