The solution to world hunger
simply mandate that everyone in the world buy enough food to live.

If you are against the mandate, you are FOR world hunger, and shame on you!

2. Makes perfect sense!
It's the only real solution to world hunger, because giving them food means there will be a lot of freeloaders who will hog the supply.

5. Oooh good idea!
And then, if they can't afford food... you could just set up a program by which they have to jump through whatever hoops you care to set up in order to get subsidized food coupons!

8. I've been saying for a while that the uninsured are the new Welfare Queens.
Just listen to the way the mandate fans describe people without health insurance sometime.
