Four Billion Pounds

That's how many pounds of food U.S. food banks are expecting to give away this year to help support this strong and resilient economy.

As an added bonus, once everyone is well-fed we can expect a huge uptick in the purchases of single family homes in suburbia. Well, assuming that "fogging the mirror" will soon be the only requirement to qualify for a new mortgage again.

Investment idea? White paint and wood! Let's make America great again by painting picket fences white, hoarding them, then selling them at a huge markup once the massive demand finally hits!

Worst case? We can sell them to the government to install on our southern border if the terrorist s%^t hits the fan again. Even bigger markup! Everyone loves fences! Woohoo!

Even with economy growing, food banks struggle to meet greater demand

U.S. food banks are expected to give away about 4 billion pounds of food this year, more than double the amount provided a decade ago, according to Feeding America, the nation's primary food bank network. The group gave away 3.8 billion in 2013.
