    It sounds like you just hate poor people. They aren’t addicted to food, they need it to live. You’ll probably be surprised to learn that people starve when they dont get food.

      This is a strange take. I never said poor people should starve. In fact, I think they deserve better then just canned food. Therefore I suggest donating cash instead of canned goods. That way the food bank can buy fresher foods.

      Anyways, it seems like this statement definitely needed more explanation and context by me, which wasn’t possible when just posting it as a shower thought.

        Yeah, it’s early and my brain didn’t even register “cancer research org”. When I first read the title I thought you were equating people’s need to eat with drug abuse.
