There is so much talk of poverty in 3rd world countries. If you look down the block, across the street from where you live there are children and elderly and homeless starving everyday here in the USA. How is this possible? Even working adults aren't getting to enough to eat or the right foods because the amount of pay verses the cost of living doesn't equal out. Alot of times this causes obesity because the cheapest foods, the fillers, are the ones that cause you to gain weight. How about teaching birth control to nations that are so poverty stricken as we teach them to plant and work the fields as we do. Then do something for our own nation. I wonder how many nights a week our government officials go without food while a child lays in the bed crying from hunger, but it's working parents don't 'qualify' for food stamps?
