The actual recommendations far exceed the current prices .. heres why theres poor people everywhere, Ontario works sends me $1000 a month, my rent is $1400 a month, an extra $400 a month to eat is just not there.. people need to feed their kids, people will do desperate things at such times, crime goes up to mental levels .. people who use drugs will use it to numb their hunger because a hit of drugs is cheaper or free compared to eating!! I've been going over all this with my doctor since on a regular I eat once a week! I've gone since before Thanksgiving for 2 weeks, my medication kills the pain in my gut, my meds are covered
