Haaretz Staff and Channel 10 : A growing line of people in need of food for Passover
Talkback
Title:a growing hunger in Israel
Name:Millicent
City: State: Israel
The gov. would have us think that everything here is great with the economy,and that everyone is doing well,yet this article talking about an increased number of people across Israel needing food for Pesah tells us a different story doesn`t it? This is the truth behind the gov. lies that the economy here is good, and that there is no hunger in Israel...yet the gov. does nothing, instead it relies on private charaties and the kindness of strangers to feed the hungry, instead of enacting programs whereby the gov. makes sure noone goes hungry! Even in the US& Englad there are Food Stamp programs run by the gov, which enable poor people to go to the store and purchase certain healthy foods with those stamps, that is what is needed here as well. There is no shame in using food stamps to put food on your table, the shame is that the gov. is too lazy to do something to help the people here that need it!
