Conservative Think Tank Declares Not Enough American Children are Going Hungry

 

Washington, DC--A conservative think tank, Prosperity for a Prosperous America, proclaimed yesterday
that not enough children in America are going hungry. In a press release, the think tank blamed the current lack of American global competitiveness on Americans not having to work for 3rd world wages.

Dr. Charles Chewie, President of Prosperity for a Proserous America, said in that press release that in the United States companies have to pay Americans at least a minimum wage and it is cutting at least a few cents into corporate profits.

"In the US, Corporations are already stretched thin. A few cents adds up and it can mean the difference between a CEO making 100 million or 99 million a year. This is an outrage!" Chewie said.

"Greedy American workers that want to have food for their families are a big problem. How can you have prosperity for America when American children are not as hungry as those in Bangladesh or some other really competitive nation"

"The fact that 1 in 4 children live in poverty in the US but in other competitive countries, like the Dominican Republic, a lot more children live in poverty means that the US is not as prosperous as we should be." Chewie said.

Prosperity for a Prosperous America  believes that if Americans could move past their own greed then they would accept a much higher hunger and poverty rate for children as well as adults.

"We have to educate Americans, and it starts with children, that they shouldn't expect something to eat every day. This is a crazy notion that started with greedy social reformers trying to make sure that Americans were not starving. That is a backwards notion and not in keeping with global competitiveness" Chewie was quoted as saying.

The conservative think tank declared that hunger is just a mindset and people don't need as much food as they think.

"Selfish people concerned about themselves and their families having enough to eat is killing American competitiveness and we all know that a competitive America is a prosperous America," Chewie said.
