Political Quotes

“Last week, the Communist Government of Cuba announced that it is launching widespread rationing of food due to the grave economic crisis in their country. Unlike citizens of Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, and countless other nations, Americans know their grocery store shelves will be filled every day with an abundant supply of quality products at affordable prices, and that is thanks to the ingenuity and hard work of America's farmers and agribusinesses. For Americans who lack the means to put food on the table, our taxpayers generously provide hundreds of billions of dollars for food stamps and other welfare benefits. Private entities such as churches and nonprofit food banks rely on the voluntary generosity of their members. Yet it all starts with the supply of food. We could have fistfuls of $100 bills and EBT cards, but that wouldn't matter if the grocery store shelves were bare. As Americans, we must always celebrate our system of free enterprise and our incredible agricultural producers. We are, indeed, the envy of the world. ____________________”
