When people can't feed their children, nothing else positive happens. You don't have to look farther than the United States to see that.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Poverty is a very complicated issue, but feeding a child isn't.
The issue I have always felt most strongly about is hunger in America, in particular the children.
Hunger in America is an American problem. The hunger of one should be the concern of all. Especially the hunger of children - our children.
Feeding my children is not like feeding myself: it matters more.
Generosity has built America. When we fail to invest in children, we have to pay the cost.
Why are kids being inundated with food that is not good for them, when we're suffering from an obesity crisis? Is the U.S. government talking out of both sides of its mouth, promoting bad food while telling us not to eat it?
The lack of access to proper nutrition is not only fueling obesity, it is leading to food insecurity and hunger among our children.
We'd rather pay farmers millions of dollars not to grow crops than to feed children.
Frankly, one of the problems we have in the country is we're not forming enough families. And that is hurting our economic work, and it's hurting our economic projections, because the best place for a child is within a strong family unit.
The implications of Americans devoting their lives to fast food are more profound than the fact that our kids aren't eating well. There are real repercussions that we need to know about and think about.
