What have YOU done?
So the state wasn't feeding them prior to your adoption? What did they do just let em graze in the alley's?

I thought the Tea Party was irrelevant, insignificant, white-supremacist terrorist clan? Now all of sudden they wield enormous political power and are demanded to fix the problems Obama created in a snap. Interesting.

No its not. Lets follow the transaction just to help you out, shall we?

You gave computers to GoodWill
GoodWill SOLD your computers to a "poor" family, (which is just your assumption, because it could have been an individual like myself who needs it for parts),

In order for that "poor" family to BUY that computer, they need to not buy FOOD with it, (i.e. the thread).

You actually helped make the hungry people hungrier by making them choose food, vs computer.

There is no responsibility anymore. Lib policy has reinforced that over the years.

Clearly if the state was giving enough food to the poor, we wouldnt have 1 out of 4 hungry, right? After all, we spending hundreds of billions feeding the poor a year
