I found this over in the comments on HuffPo with a blog entry originally posted on The Nation.

A few days ago, someone on CNN reported that we have spent some 300 Million or so dollars on those Mobile Homes for Katrina evacuees and they are just sitting there in Arkansas.

And then it hit me:

300 Million is a bit more than the population of our country.

The Federal government could give each citizen 1 Million dollars.

Even if not,even if not, it shows how wealthy this nation really is.

No one should be allowed to go hungry or allowed to be homeless..

No one.

I don't know the dynamics of giving everyone a million dollars and what it would do the economy. It's tough to call but I do know this. There is no reason on this earth that any human being should go hungry. None, nada, zip zilch.
