If a person “shoplifts” baby formula, it needs to be understood that if they don’t, the baby dies. People say, “What about food banks?!?” Lots of food banks haven’t got baby formula. This country should not ever assume itself a moral entity. Not for the rest of time.
A country where people must obtain baby formula by “shoplifting” is a country that has FAILED. Fuck your election. Fuck your democracy. Fuck your Constitution. It is a failure. You can’t even agree that feeding children is the right thing to do.
This fucking place cuts school lunch budgets then hands out astronomical sums to the Pentagon. It cannot agree that feeding kids is right! In fact, it denies that! How can anyone believe in this political system?!? The elections are just a choice in who cuts school lunch budgets.
People should be ashamed of this political system. That it has driven desperate people to have to “shoplift” baby formula so their baby doesn’t starve. That it thinks it can sit arguing over how many Congresspeople can dance on the head of a pin as this happens.
People have had to “shoplift” bread. This is the pinnacle by which you can know when a government has failed its people. When its people must steal bread to survive. And these un-useful idiots in Congress congratulate themselves because they won an election. Fuck them.
And how about FEMA??!!! https://denver.cbslocal.com/2020/04/13/coronavirus-covid19-baby-supplies-fema/
