Who cares?

I know your blind "individual freedom"  ideology (based on "shared belief") is responsible for the economic dysfunction and wars ruining our world.

Silly of me to ask a deluded individual freedom, 'shared belief'  ideologue about anything, least of all your nonsense about 'little pinks'.

You'll have to ask them.

Meantime food charities in Oz  are reporting their longest queues ever.

Food insecurity is growing in Australia with charities reporting increased demand

Courtesy of economic failure via your disgusting dysfunctional free market; Oz agriculture  produces more than double its local food requirements.

Correct

No, Oz produces double the food its population needs, yet food banks/charities can't meet demand.

(Your error: failing to address the cause of the "food insecurity" (in a land of plenty) experienced by the bottom half of the population, a failure caused by your dysfunctional  blind "freedom values" ideology on which the neoliberal market is based.

I'm saying half the population actually feel the stress  of a cost of living crisis, ie those on the median age and below. 

These poeple have to consider food prices along with prices of other essentials when choosing what to buy  (ie non-discretionary spending), not a good situation to be in.

The actual people lining up at the food bank charities is less than half:

(google)
Foodbank provides food relief to more than a million people each month. Foodbank provides food relief to over 1 million people per month but more than one in three food insecure Australians (38%) are not seeking food relief.

'Food bank' aren't the only food charity who can't keep up with demand.

It means the one million people for whom Foodbank provide food each month in Oz are "food insecure" - even though Oz has plentiful food supplies. 

Deplorable, the result of your obsolete neoclassical economic ideology based on your individual freedom delusions.

1. Yes,  welfare in lieu of work  is deplorable, and a hoax designed to increase rich people's claims on the nation's resources.

The Case for a Job Guarantee

Did you imagine you were making a point about about food insecurity and the record demands on food charities in Oz, in the current cost of living crisis - a free market failure?
