3. I need to revise my post.

I had posted a cartoon from this morning's batch depicting Mitch McConnell as Marie Antoinette. I quickly though to myself that there isn't anything funny about hunger.

Yeah, I can't make fun of this. People are going hungry, but this is happening.

I don't know what the answer is. These are chickens. They are not a package commodity ready to sell for taking home and cooking. First, you've got to get people out to the farms to get the chickens. Then they have to be moved to a central location for distribution. Then, you have all those feathers to contend with.

There are a lot of intermediate steps involved.
