Alexandria Occasional Cortex says that the rising crime rate is because poor people are hungry, “Maybe this has to do with the fact that people aren’t paying their rent & are scared to pay their rent & so they go out & they need to feed their child & they don’t have money so… they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry.”  She goes on to say that, “Republicans are all upset that I’m connecting the dots between poverty and crime. I know most of them haven’t experienced or seen these issues first hand, but I have. This may be hard for them to admit, but poverty and crime are highly linked, both violent & nonviolent alike.”

Occasional Cortex is a member of Crazy Uncle Joe Biden’s  BRAIN TRUST.  I assume that Occasional Cortex and Crazy Uncle Joe came up with this wonderful solution to solve the hunger issue that is causing crime in this country.
