Is it?

Isn't the goal is to have 100% of people fed by food banks? The complete abolition of commoditized foods?

Food banks are privately organised and staffed by volunteers.
They're a patch that tries to barely cover the gaping hole in tax-funded welfare for the citizens.

Yeah, they should be funded by tax dollars.
