What NO Computer or big screen TV

America is a ‘Leader’ in Child Poverty



The U.S. has one of the highest relative child poverty rates in the developed world. As UNICEF reports, “[Children’s] material well-being is highest in the Netherlands and in the four Nordic countries and lowest in Latvia, Lithuania, Romania and the United States.”

Over half of public school students are poor enough to qualify for lunch subsidies, and almost half of black children under the age of six are living in poverty.

$5 a Day for Food, But Congress Thought it was Too Much.

Nearly half of all food stamp recipients are children, and they averaged about $5 a day for their meals before the 2014 farm bill cut $8.6 billion (over the next ten years) from the food stamp program.

1. What a piece of shit

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

6. I would say that at least shit serves a purpose and even has some value. nt

2. "A poor person has a TV, therefore child poverty is not real." This is NOT information at all!

This isn't news, this isn't faux news (take that as you will), this isn't propaganda, this isn't fallacious thinking, this isn't even something that can be called false. It is false of course, but why this was said was said for an entirely different reason...

This is an attack of a right wing media war against this nation's poorest and most powerless citizens.

3. O'Really?

4. ask more about who writes his script

The media moguls would be very happy enslaving the planet and plan on it .

[BarackTheVote]

5. And since when did it become such a sin

for people to have computers? Computers are a virtual necessity in today's world, especially if you are job-hunting or in school.

7. bill orielly is an ignorant piece of dogshit

he only hears what is rattling around in his empty head and has no empathy for anyone. he thinks he "made it" after having "working class roots" but he only made it because there are enough angry and pathetic people who are willing to lap up the putrid bile he spews forth.

credit to our own admiral loinpresser, whose words i altered for the title of my post (his referred to bill maher)

10. Clueless

People like O'Reilly are clueless. This reminds me of the time he claimed there are zero homeless veterans in New York City.

12. I'll never forget the lunch lady episodes of Chopped -

for more than one of them, this facet of their jobs was a shared one:

While Barbara was the winner among the two New Haven Public Schools chefs, she won a lot more than just crosstown bragging rights.

She -- along with her competitors, who all were chosen for their commitment, dedication and talent in making delicious, healthful meals from fresh foods -- won a healthy level of respect for raising the bar on a profession that, in addition to making things tasty, is charged with preparing what sometimes are the only healthful meals kids get.

"Stereotypes of lunch ladies with the hair nets, serving slop -- that's not it!" Barbara said during a lead-in segment for the competion.

"For a lot of these kids, lunch is the last meal of the day," and it's a challenge "just to get them fed," she said.

13. He and Limbaugh and their ilk

are nothing but soulless, corporatist shills. They will gladly say anything to push that agenda and to line their own pockets.

[summerschild]

14. O'Reilly said there were no homeless vets, either.

Nothing between his ears but air.

[Orrex]

15. Children in my town go hungry each day

Several of my kids' classmates rely on the school for breakfast and lunch, because otherwise they'd only have one meal or less.

What a fucking asshole. His assets should be seized and liquidated to provide food for starving American children.
