Starving in America: The Politics of Poverty & Hunger

Below is a link to a collection of web sites that deal with poverty and hunger. Look them over and comment. This would also make a great topic for a Sociology research project. If you are not a member of the Learnist Community, you may want to join. A lot of great stuff on just about any topic.

  4. it is very sad to see our people starving and so poor they are unable to even be able to get food. but we try to help with things like food stamps, unemployment, and other grants that people may be able to get but the thing is some people actually need them and use them but with the process's in witch a individuality apply for a government aid is so easy to get into that there are people who abuse it and waste the money and aid on unnecessary goods.

  5. Breaks my heart knowing that innocent children are starving. So many people waste food too & they don't even realize. What a shame.

  6. It is a bit surprising that poverty is such a big issues in America. America may be one of the richest countries in the world but in America all the wealth is held by few people.
