Joe Biden pledges $1.7 billion to end hunger across U.S.

I googled but I couldn't find a good article on how this shit is supposed to work. All I know is companies and orgs are making "pledges" to do stuff.

I fucking hate this country.
- Libs infantilizing the poor is so disgusting
- jesus, i thought that was a joke. this place is fucking B L E A K
- hideous
- Venture=vulture
- I’m sure this time the chucklefuck college kids’ startup isn’t just a massive grift
  Jesus Christ, I should start selling startup tools to all these gullible “entrepreneurs” panning for gold in the dumbest gold rush yet
- I’m really looking forward to trashfuture laying into this
how will 1.7 billion end hunger in america you ask? why, a public-private partnership awareness campaign by the Harlem Globetrotters, a public-private partnership to deliver 10 million nutritional meals to food banks in the Midwest by 2030, and a public-private partnership with Uber to streamline logistics of course!!
now give me another 30 billion to blow up palestinian children
- I thought this was a bit until I read the article
  
  :yea:
The full details of the package are expected to be announced by Doug Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, at an event at the White House later on Tuesday.
They are preparing us for Kamala to take over for Joe

The commitments also include action plans to combat hunger by local authorities, including those in Cleveland, Ohio, and Dearborn, Michigan.
What does this mean?
- It means they’re going to scold the Muslims for being ungrateful to Genocide Joe
- combating hunger by shooting everyone in the stomach?
Is Uber going to start dumping food into the ocean?
pilot a program to transport excess food to food banks in the mid-Atlantic.
- The Mid-Atlantic is a region on the east coast
Amazing how all attempts at solutions are just providing greater availability of "choices" that are in all ways objectively worse.
