Abstract
ABSTRACT Many U.S. residents employed full-time experience food insecurity without access to safety nets. U.S. food assistance policies define equality and efficiency based on neo-liberal free market assumptions of benefit maximization. However, assistance based on these assumptions segregates the deserving populace by socioeconomic status, creates dietary disparities, and imposes an unfair burden on low-income populations to maximize nutritional cost-benefit. Private and public sector solutions that (1) recognize food security as a form of social inclusion and (2) operationalize food as a universal right are recommended, while recognizing their limitations, to redefine equality and efficiency in U.S. food assistance.
