Clearly not, but then again I was being facetious.

Anthony, the point is that they're currently a burden, and people would undoubtedly be happy to eat them. It's a win-win situation.

Aww, and I was so excited to hear about eating poor children!

Poor children have too much cholesterol, because they're fat. :) However, with a few simple modification, it's possible to fuel your car with the blood of poor children.

A Modest Proposal

I would suggest a new kind of moneybomb for those of us who have hit the maximums on Ron Paul. There are 6 Congressmen who had the integrity to vote no on HR1955. What if we send each of them $5 each, as a contribution, along with a hand-written note explaining the reason? Eager to make political points, they will surely mention such a happening if they each receive, say, 100 such contributions. This will publicize HR1955 before the Senate votes on it. What do you think?
