Government Limits on Charity

[Damocles]

I don't know about each state, but in IL churches that serve food must be licensed by health department. I've volunteered at 3 separate food kitchens and all had professional kitchens and licenses.

I think it has more to do with wanting the states to control those needing help. Most of the charitable locations not only give hot meals, but showers, counseling, and clothing for job interviews. Not so surprisingly the kitchens are doubling as AA and NA meeting places.

Yeah, I don't really have enough information to judge. I know that in order to serve even the republican breakfasts that they hold in our county we had to be certified. We either had to hold them in restaurants or we had to get certified and follow those reasonable restrictions. However I don't know if the church had done these things or if that state requires it.

But they would get jobs and do so, if we didn't have free food incenting their uselessness.

Not likely. Most of these people have larger problems.

no food might reprioritize their agenda.

Not as seen from direct evidence. Usually their primary addiction has forced them into a position where it is impossible to hold a job, it's what brought them to where they are. If they don't already see their condition as the "bottom" starving them won't normally make it any better. Nor will the fact that we have massive unemployment make it "easy" to find that quick job for the McDonald's hamburger. I think you have missed the motive. I don't yet know what it is, but forcing them to buy McDonald's? Nah, that isn't it.

We have never seen the experiment play out. Kind people keep feeding them.

We need to outlaw kindness is what we need. How can a market function with kindness being used to attack socially minded large companies?

Now that's a winning argument.

It would be almost impossible to outlaw the free exercise of religion that way. First you need to get people on board the Amendment that would allow you to start.

The value add of assembling the ingredients into meals cuts into restaurant profit. Even that is problematic for the machine.

Then why not outlaw home cooking entirely? You are an idiot. There is no dark sinister plot here. The idiotic thinking behind this is...

It probably will happen through energy taxation, combined with declaring parents incompetent to feed children. Home gardens will be outlawed because it's disruptive to gaia.

Therre is a dark sinister plot here. You're part of it, carrying it's intellectual water on every post.

This is sad and pathetic.

 

[RockX]

isn't it obvious why they are making these ordinances?

this is all about NIMBY.

Of course it is, you idiot. Who wants a shitload of homeless fucks walking up & down their neighborhood. Most of them are either crazy, doped up or criminals.
