A Modest Proposal

In this world we're faced with many problems. For us college students in the States those problems could include finding a job, working part-time and barely making money, doing your homework and worst of all, walking to class in this nasty weather. Luckily for us college students, those are our biggest problems. The United States isn't exactly a third world country but we do have our issues. A large portion of our population is in poverty or hungry, wages are being cut and the food industry controls what we eat. If they aren't already supplying us with genetically mutated foods then they're trying to "persuade" the government to pass bills to help them do so. So for us college students, trying to eat healthy or even eat something that isn't terrible for us is a struggle. In order to combat the tyranny of the food company, I propose this modest proposal; we host a Hunger Games.

     The idea is simple, really. We divide the food companies up into a certain "districts" (Kellog, Tyson, etc.), randomly select a "volunteer" from their executive boards and put on our own "Hunger Games". We place this volunteers into one of our poorer areas of the States and make them live how they live. No help, no shelter, no guidance, just them against the "environment". If they complete a task of some sort they may win a "care package" filled with foods from their respective companies. The last person still alive by the end of this may decide how the food industry is run from here on out. Hopefully, with this experience under their belt, they have a better idea of what we're being fed.
