Montgomery County Council Members Live on $5 a Day Food Subsidy

This quote pretty sums it all up.

“This experience makes me wonder, if I am this hungry, what do people who have physically demanding jobs feel like? How does a parent who works two jobs find the time to prepare and cook nutritious meals? How are these folks making it on $5 a day?”

via Council members’ week on food subsidy both personal and political – The Washington Post.

I wonder how this nation would fare if members of Congress did a similar exercise.
