These are not economic issues. War torn countries are not suffering a failed economic model. The other times these issues happen it is because they are communist nations.

Okay. So what about the US? It's not war torn, nor communist. Yet millions are starving, unable to afford healthcare, unemployed and only surviving on government funds and crime.

Millions are starving in the US? By what metric? I really doubt this is true.

12.7 percent of all U.S households. 6.1 million U.S. households suffer from severe food insecurity, which means the people who live in them are often hungry.

Food insecurity is not the same as starvation. If, as you say,the same people can afford drugs then having not enough food is an option.

At the same time in #USA, about 50% of food, bought and paid for, ends up in a dumpster.

Why do you think drugs are so popular in low income areas of cities? It's quick, yet risky way to make the money you need to survive.

Their thought process is why work $7-8/hr when you can sell pot for $10-18 a gram?
