>>Just trying to get into your sister’s mindset. <<
It was the same sob story that she told to all her lib friends to get sympathy. She forgot that I was there at the time that they were “starving”.
>>Im almost certain you can buy more than one box of mac and cheese for 99 cents.<<
It was the 90’s. You could get three boxes of Kraft Mac and Cheese for 1.00.
I’m curious to know who’s behind the big push to convince us that hunger is such a huge issue. I was recently polled on it and the “facts” they stated about hunger in the US were beyond ridiculous. Now not only am I a globull warming denier, I’m also a hunger-crisis denier. I’m collecting leftist titles as fast as they can give ‘em.
IMHO it has ALWAYS been saturated with leftist influence.
“I thought Oscar was the poor character on Sesame Street?”
Awesome observation.
Despite grinding poverty, Oscar built himself a home out of whatever he could find and make do with, feeding off the scraps from abundance enjoyed by the well-off neighbors (I’m sure those actors are doing quite well). While a bit of a grouch, his tenacious survival instincts have kept him going in a contented lifestyle for decades.
He is, of course, ignored by the Leftist elite because they cannot subjugate him.

Maybe it has been. I don’t know much about it, honestly, only what’s been going on lately.
Those PBS people should be imprisoned for child abuse.
I pray your sister can find her way out of self-pity, dependency cycle that the government bureaucrats promote.
Honestly, she can’t.
She is a victim in the first degree and will always be that way. Even her kids have given up on her.
