  1. Benson, I guess the point is you asked for statistics and there they are. No personal attack, no deflection from the facts. Just real data from reputable sources.

    Digest them, discredit them, whatever you want. It has nothing to do with your circumstances of which I have no interest and serve no relevance to the hunger topic. Remember we’re trying to keep this non-personal after all.

  2. “”oh benson, I just wish we were all as smart as you think you are. And had ALL the answers. : P”

    Keep practicing, you’ll get there! 🙂

    THL, MM- he was right! practice makes perfect. Great responses

  3. THL;

    I think you should know more about me before you go there. Some of the folks who come to the meet-ups can tell you more about my personal circumstances. E-mail them.

    Good night all!

  4. “There seems to be some consensus of opinion in much of this country, not just here on this site, that there are vast amounts of poor people lazily partying hardy on our dime”

    Where did anyone on this site make that statement?

    It is said, and implied just about every time rent control, housing lotteries, affordable housing, and any kind of program or idea to house, doctor, or feed lower income people is mentioned on this site. Would that the search feature could bring up all of the instances. You would just have to punch in the word “unfair” as whined by so many. And, believe it or not, I read and see a whole lot of things that are not on Brownstoner, hence the “much of this country” part. I know you are wanting chapter and verse. I’ll provide when you actually answer some of my real points in a debate, instead of trying to deflect with flag waving or by simply changing the subject or accusing someone of attacking you personally.

    I think we’ve flogged this to death. Good evening everyone.
