This is what TVNL calles a Friday SNEAK.... the gov't puts this out on Fridays so fewer people will hear about it..... it's the lowest news listening day of the week. So....here's the truth about the great upsurge in our standard of living....makes you proud to be an American, doesn't it... hell, 87 billion for Iraq sounds good....

Number of hungry families in U.S. rising
By EMILY GERSEMA
Associated Press

WASHINGTON - About 12 million American families last year worried that they couldn't afford to buy food, and 32 percent of them actually experienced someone going hungry at one time or another, the Agriculture Department said Friday.

It was the third year in a row that the department has seen an increase in the number of households experiencing hunger and those worried about having enough money to pay for food.
