10. There's a national organization "Meals on Wheels"

Unfortunately in most states, since the organization is locally run - the organization only supplies meals to homebound seniors and disabled without caretakers who also can't cook for themselves due to a physical condition, not seniors who are running out of food or have no transportation to get to food pantries.

Because if you just make too much money to qualify for generous food stamps - even if you barely afford the room you live in or meds you have to take, or you can get out of the house but don't have a car or friend, family who can take you shopping or you have the means and ability to cook - well, that's your fault for not having enough money or friends, now, isn't it Grammy?
Go call up a church, and wash that moral hazard off your soul. Or just starve, since you're useless now.
My very elderly mother calls the GOP and money-minded Libertarian(asshole) adjacent "Stingy Stinkers" - privileged, lucky folks who know the cost of everything down to the penny when it might affect them, but the value of nothing.

Meals on Wheels used to get all sorts of subsidies from the Federal Government to go along with their assistance programs, allowing them to expand their programs to include lower income people not exactly housebound but unable to access a month's worth of food (either by lack of cash or by living in a food desert without reliable transportation), but I'm pretty sure they got whacked too hard by the DOGE axe to continue with that expansion.

It's unacceptable that in a country as supposedly rich as the US is, with a huge number of single talent billionaires lounging around playing competitive money games with their - spaceships - that there's an increase of people who are starving like that caller.
