I don't know where you're seeing "huge Children Who Go To Bed Hungry
statistics," unless it's in critical polemics that imagine someone is
saying that. Do you have examples, or do they exist in your
imagination?

That's roughly the same number reported in the Ag. Dept study that the
Heritage Foundation used in their report. Project Bread says 10.8% of
the people of Massachusetts are "food insecure." The Dept. of
Agriculture says that the nationwide figure is 14.5%. Heritage says
that 17% of the "poor" reported not having enough food to eat. That's
more or less the same as the definition for "food insecure." You can
look all of this up on the Ag. Dept. website.

These numbers don't add up until you see another place where Heritage
is spinning: they didn't include the whole population, while the Dept.
of Agriculture did.

Hmmm....

You guys don't even read the stuff you quote. You're hopeless.
