Here’s how you can tell someone’s never done any charity work without them telling you they’ve never done any charity work: Minnesota state senator Steve Drazkowski said he was voting against a bill to fund school lunch and breakfast programs because he’s never met a hungry person in the state, NBC News reports.
“I have yet to meet a person in Minnesota that is hungry. I have yet to meet a person in Minnesota that says they don’t have access to enough food to eat. Now, I should say that hunger is a relative term,” Drazkowski smirked before mocking those suffering from hunger. “I had a cereal bar for breakfast. I guess I’m hungry now.”
Roughly 11% of the children in Minnesota live below the poverty line, a number about 40% more than the 6-6.5% of people living in poverty in Drazkowski’s own district, where he apparently never went into a neighborhood that didn’t meet his Stepford standards.
