I agree with some points there.

I like the "in order to get welfare, you need to do something work related, i.e. pick up trash or something 2 - 3 days a week in order to get food stamps" idea.

I also like the tax deductions for food donations so giant corporations can donate foods without being taxed.

One thing I would like to see changed is the whole farm subsidies thing. Isn't it like the government is paying farmers to NOT grow too much food so as to keep the prices of certain commodities up? They should change it so that anything extra past their quota goes to the poor somehow.

You wanna here another fun law?  By law... if a giant commercial fishing uses a net.  Which they all do... and they take in their limit... (Which is about 1/10th of the net.

No one is legally aloud to pick up the other 9/10ths of the dead fish in the lake.  All those fish are ruined.... rather then going to a good cause.

 

they should really 

 

1) find a less destructive way of fishing

or

2) use smaller nets

 

 

But then they wouldn't get "The best of the best" fish.

I'm really considering emailing my state congressmen about it but most of em seem pretty corrupt.  I mean you could pass a law that allows someone to salvage the overspill for food shelters and homeless shelters.

Suddenly the food shelters and homeless shelters would be overflowing with food.
