A Recipe for Big Government: “Food Insecurity”
From StosselTV
The government tells us 33 million Americans suffer from food insecurity! Really? 33 million Americans are hungry?
“That’s just not true,” says Rachel Sheffield, a researcher at The Heritage Foundation. “’Food insecure’ adults are more likely to be consuming too many calories rather than too few,”.
The government always tries to create a crisis. “Government programs tend to want to keep themselves going,” says Sheffield. But their handouts harm the very people they are meant to help.
“We’ve spent more on the war on poverty than all the military wars combined in the United States without any success.” The result? Increased dependency on government!
Expanding the welfare system seems to be the government’s main goal. The food insecurity myth and others, like “food desserts,” are debunked in this video.

We’re told we need more minerals for EVERYTHING, especially “green” energy. But America regulators and environmental groups keep KILLING new mines!
“Why in the world would you put billions of dollars at risk to get a permit? Knowing they’ll just cancel a permit!” Physicist Mark Mills writes about the absurd regulations in the mining industry, “You’re going to be waiting, not months, not years, but the record shows decades.” America used to lead the world in producing minerals. Now we rank next to last in the time it takes to develop mines. How did this happen? Because rich environmental groups hate mines. They run deceitful ads and even collude with government to block mines. The video above explains some of the many reasons why this is a BIG problem.
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.

Pollution, homophobia, racism, hate; activists claim everything is getting worse. The opposite is true. But if they admit that how would they raise money?
“For activists, success is a threat,” journalist John Tierney explains. “It is going to put you out of business unless you find a new cause.”
Tierney has covered activists for years and watched them move from one cause to another. “But it’s not a business,” I push back. “They’re not making money doing this.” “Oh, yes, they are,” replies Tierney. Lots!
Our new video looks at how these activist groups raise billions of dollars, the consequences of their activism, and why we fall for their scares.
