The Invisible Hand Of The Free Market has judged these people and determined them to be undeserving of adequate nutrition.
The good old days, where the peasants were riddled with scurvy and rickets.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Prof Kamila Hawthorne, chair of the Royal College of GPs (RCGP), said doctors were facing “moral distress” because of a limited ability to help.
The Guardian analysed rates of 25 conditions linked to poor nutrition, including vitamin and mineral deficiencies, scurvy, rickets and malnutrition.
Over the past decade, there was a steep increase across nearly all of the conditions, based on primary and secondary diagnosis in hospital patients in England and Wales.
Prof Sir Michael Marmot, of UCL, who led a landmark review into health inequalities, said that the figures, if representative of an underlying increase in illness, were “really shocking”.
And experts said this may explain increases in rarer deficiencies, such as vitamin A and thiamine, which are typically monitored in the growing population of bariatric surgery patients.
The link between hunger, food insecurity and health is complex, with some people simultaneously being overweight or obese and suffering deficiencies because of diets that are high calorie but lacking in essential nutrients.

Food stamps in the US don’t cover prepared meals.
I know you can’t buy restaurant-style stuff from the deli that’s ready to eat.
But can’t you buy hamburger helper with SNAP? Or Hormel prepared shelf-stable meals? Or Dinty Moore corn beef hash in a can? This is what I was talking about.
Those, yes. Your comment made me think you were thinking of things like chickens that have already been cooked or take out from the deli.
