I have found a troubling revelation within the Military of the United States in which made me upset greatly. I feel that the United States is a good Country when it wants to be, when it decides to worry about themselves more then other countries.
For some of you that do not work I work on Fort Bliss in Fort Bliss Texas which is like a city within a city (I live in El Paso Texas). I was working inside one of the warehouses chilling for awhile eating my lunch until I heard some noises coming from a dumpster not so far away. When one of my co-workers went to check it out, and to throw away some trash he saw that the dumpster had boxes closed inside. These boxes were tapped up.
Well my Co-worker is a scavenger so yes he went into the dumpster. After taking out a few boxes we found some things that we just thought was, yay. We found boxes filled with trays, cups, untensils and etc which have never been opened. We found canned food, a gallon of peas never been open. We found canned fruit never been open, we found containers of preserved fruit never been open. We found a lot of preserved food and supplies. We found a large a one foot by three feet by four feet container filled with boxes of oatmeal, lemonade stuff, gaderade powder and etc. I mean, wow. We found cans of beans, boxes with actual apples that are still ripe, found loafs of bread that are not around the expiration date, and they were not going bad. This dumpster is about...six feet high, seven feet wide by four, five feet wide. It was filled with food.
I decide to do some research, well, apparently if they have overstock food and other materials, they throw it away. THEY THROW IT AWAY. Hell I spoke to another co worker he said a few years ago, they were going to throw away stuff inside a freezer. Ribs...they were going to throw away two hundred pounds of meat. Fresh, the ones throwing it away were going to take it but they could not because they would have been fined or something, so my co workers took the stuff. Good food Good food.
It upsets me because there is starving people out there in the world, and look at what is happening. The Military is throwing away food, they are throwing away the tax payers money. They could easily take this stuff, and go to a shelter. The Military guys don't even have to put it inside the building. They can easily put the stuff in front, the people in shelters would easily organize the shit.
Sad, and upsetting.
Heero.
