The Welfare Wagon

Dave drove up in the welfare wagon.  Dave had watermelons, potatoes, and some other canned and packaged goods.  The Kadizzles had the potatoes for dinner last night.  Dave's church is part of a food distribution system for poor people.  The problem is the poor can't eat all the food.  So after all the poor get all they want Dave brings it back to camp.  What a strange country we live in where the poor die from obesity and the rich die because they cannot get enough tax breaks.

In the old days the best way to defeat the Native Americans would have been with junk food.  If the settlers had spread junk food in Indian areas and just waited the rest would be history.   Indians cannot resist fire water and potato chips.   Of course Kadizzle has his problems too resisting all the fattening crap in the store.

Anyone who is hungry in this country has a problem.   So much food is wasted.  So much good food is left in the fields.  Statistics show we waste about a third of the food we produce.

It is going to be a sunny nice day.  Kadizzle is still driven mad by the lingering epizootic.  The crud is taking forever to leave the lungs.  Jasper is just in the early stages of the disease.

With the supreme idiot shutting down the government the volunteer gang has been looking for entertainment.  Yesterday Ken, Rita, and Jasper hiked while Kadizzle rode the ebike along the trail.  The ebike performed well, but the briers tore Kadizzle to pieces.
