Food was in mighty short supply in Soviet Russia, where it was pretty much treated as a "right", as well.The only recent food crisis we have suffered was when the enlightened decided to save us from the Oil Cartel and started turning our food into gasoline. Gas efficiency drops, prices of everything from tortillas to Mountain Dew increase, the splash and dash laws allow the US to subsidize the price of gas sold in Europe and the Lagislators from the Corm Belt States get rich on the contributions from the Ethanol folks.
Yet another disaster sponsored by the know nothings in DC.
I hope I don't get sick after the Washington elite are in charge of healthcare. Very shortly, their stupidity really will be the death of me.
When anything is a right, it is provided as a minimum. Does everyone have a right to the best food? Are we talking Lobster with Drawn butter? Filet mignon? Are we even talking Big Macs?
Probably no.
Bread and water, recipe defined and cost dictated prison food or school lunches? Probably so.
Kind of makes one wonder about the "menu" for Universal Health Care. What might be the medical equivilant of "Ketchup is a vegetable"?
Could look something like "The nurse at the Minute Clinic is an MD"
