Statistics that become part of our folklore should raise suspicion. When we dig into them, they are usually wrong.
Well, would you get a load of this Mister Paul Roderick Gregory fella? First of all, He don’t exactly look like the kind of person that should be handing out advice for how some people should eat. Secondly, I don’t think this man has a lick of understanding what it’s like to be “food insecure”. Why is he making such a fuss about this anyway? Am I supposed to be relieved that I am one in ten children who goes hungry as opposed to one in five? He ain’t exactly a statistical wizard over here. He didn’t even cite a reference where half of these 21% of the population being hungry are adults… and even then! They are still hungry.
