A Modest Proposal Response

There are some crazy stories and articles out there, but this one takes the cake. You know how people write long, deep poems and they mean a great philosophical meaning to a lot of people. I thought this story/letter was written with a deep meaning. At first, I was trying to figure out what the author meant by having the children be the food. Then I realize, this author is crazy. He is actually proposing to solve a problem with cannibalism. The problem is that there are too many kids being born into these poor families that cannot take care of these children. Therefore, the author comes up with the solution to sell the poor children, at the age of one, to the rich to be eaten. The worst thing about this whole thing is that the author is dead serious. This is a real problem. To try and relate this to people today is not so difficult. People have come up with excuses that support abortion which essentially is the same thing. People that support abortion are killing the child in the end and that's what this author was proposing. So don't think that this story is in "cray-cray" land. This is happening in our world, today.
