Quote of the Day
The latter part of a wise person's life is occupied with
curing the follies, prejudices and false opinions they contracted earlier.

Why The U.S. Can’t Solve Hunger
This tends to be more of a Statist approach to the issue. I want to emphasize some key points not being addressed, like zoning laws (e.g., food deserts), health or other regulations hampering charitable efforts, agricultural policies like market orders/quotas or import restrictions (e.g., sugar) that artificially restrict supplies and inflate prices, and decentralization of government food assistance (e.g., block grants) to state/local authorities. I could go on and on about dysfunctional policies like how Trump's NAFTA and FDA regulations blocked imports during the recent infant formula shortage,
