Seeing self-identified "Christians" choose to keep food from children as a political bargaining tool reminds me of Neal Stephenson's Leviticans of Ameristan in his (otherwise quite bad) book "Fall: Or, Dodge in Hell"

A friend shared this poem and it's been haunting me. Good Bones, by Maggie Smith
Words of the poem Good Bones, by Maggie Smith Life is short, though I keep this from my children. Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways, a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative estimate, though I keep this from my children. For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird. For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world is at least half terrible, and for every kind stranger, there is one who would break you, though I keep this from my children. I am trying to sell them the world. Any decent realtor, walking you through a real shithole, chirps on about good bones: This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.
