That children go hungry is directly related to their efed up fathers. Politicizing the issue of childhood malnutrition is simply an issue of political power grabbing.
There's more than enough wealth too around. Warren Buffett once said the world is awash with cash. The problem is 2% of the worlds population controls 90% of the wealth. Greedy bastards.

Most of the wealthy are born again Christian Saints, who are taught not to go around doing good works like helping the poor and needy

Their rationalizations for not allowing the government to do it would be funny if they weren't so pathetic.
After all is said and done, the bottom line is that right wing America has greed as their master.

If there is a non-political solution to the uneven distribution of wealth and to the control of wealth exerted by the "greedy bastards", what is it?
To my way of thinking, any morally sound concerted steps that a society might take to address the issues in the OP would be, by definition, political, while taking or endorsing concerted action that had no realistic chance of succeeding would not be morally sound. What do you think?

What do you think are the moral dimensions to the debate about the extent of responsibility of a government to intervene to mitigate or to protect children from "efed up fathers"?
Originally posted by @suzianne Why not? Republicans like you love to dictate to women that every pregnancy they have must come to term, and yet you also refuse to fund welfare programs for those mothers who are single or, God forbid, non-white. You forget them the very minute they are born.
Stop being such a hypocrite.
True, the more poor people you kill the less poor people you have.

Try telling it to the atheists. Or you can just keep lambasting the Christians. Whichever gives you the most pleasure. I don't care.
Whether you want to admit it or not, the fact is that the impediment to enacting such advice in the US falls largely on the shoulders of the "religious right".

The "religious right" has been feeding half the world for the past 2000 years dip stick.
You're so full of misinformation it's impossible to engage in an intelligent discussion with you.
