They do have enough to eat. That’s the whole point of the article. People don’t starve to death in the United States. You can go to food banks, churches, meal halls etc not to mention welfare and free school lunches. Food is limitless.
Obesity is one of the biggest problems for Americas poor so that should tell you something.
America has a lot of problems but access to food is not one of them.
Then why do they work? The whole economy there runs on the threat of starving. With the horrible work conditions poor people face there, they would not work in those conditions if they were unable to starve.
Many of them don’t work and live in public housing. The ones who do work do so to have a higher quality of life. Living off of government handouts is not glamorous. Public housing complexes and inner city slums are notoriously crime ridden. The overwhelming majority of non-suicide gun deaths occur in these areas due to drug addiction etc.
The rural poor have similar problems but there is far less violence.
Where did I say that?
