Yeah, food delivery to your door if you don’t have a MAGA sign in your yard. Tear it down and reboot with honest management. Investigate, expose and prosecute those who grifted off the poor.

I can anticipate your response: “people give because they want to, that’s why we don’t need government to provide charity.” Except the government wouldn’t be providing charity if citizens were already taking care of each other.

Keep telling yourself that. I’m sure you convince yourself that you donate to charity because you pay taxes.

Yes there is a bid process and our local food bank had the same worries about the funding cuts a couple weeks ago.

Sure, anyone is allowed to use them.
I don’t, because I have pride, a work ethic, and I don’t have a legitimate need.
Some people will gladly tote off bags of dog turds if you slap a “free, take all you want” sign on it.
How often do you frequent the food bank picking up your free cans of beans? Twice a week? More?
You remind me of the loser who admitted several months ago to taking free groceries from his kids’ elementary school even though he didn’t need them.

The people of NC need to ask themselves why their food banks need federal assistance in order to operate.
Because NC doesn’t grow everything that a food bank will distribute. That’s where the bid process comes in and lowers the cost the feds pay to feed the locals. NC by itself doesn’t have the same purchasing power and would pay more for the same product(s).

vernment would give regardless because politicians like buying votes and can spruce up those charitable gifts. Instead of basics they get to provide money for junk food and less than necessary food stuffs. They also like funding NPOs like the one mentioned in the OP.

The interstate system never should have happened. It already exists now. We aren't going to be tearing it all up tomorrow.
I agree with you 100%, but since it is here, I could argue that maintaining a network of navigable highways across the nation is critical to our common defense as well. But I’d still argue that benefit doesn’t outweigh the negative impacts of the interstate system.

This isn't why. The government is not a solution.

I can see the sense in this, but the federal government should be able to serve this function simply by controlling borders/access.
