I used to think it would be best for all involved if we went back to a more simple time,  no electricity, cars or engines..everyone growing their own food and providing for themselves.  Yes, this would mean computers and cell phones too!  I can hear the collective gasp from 13 yr olds nationwide.  

Maybe this will come to pass yet.   Printing more money isn't working.

How many people died of starvation/exposure during the Great Depression?

They arent really Mennonites, just anti-capitalists.

Too many of them.

To keep from starving? A myriad of Federal state and local benefits.

I've misunderstood, then. I thought in the article it said:

quote:

the agency is merely being cautious with the approach of an early-December deadline when thousands of Indiana residents could see their unemployment benefits end after exhausting the maximum 99 weeks provided through multiple federal extension periods.

Unemployment benefits are not the only benefits in the US!

you can start here

And thats only public programs. There a hundreds of other charitable sources of support. I dont think there has been a documented non-medical case of starvation in the US for 70 years.

There are so few starvation deaths overall that they dont even rank statistically, and even those are the consequence of abuse or psychological impairment.
