[...] The U.S. Department of Agriculture projects the industry will produce a record 102.7 billion pounds of meat this year.

Mark my words: They will WASTE it.
They will bury or burn it.
They will NEVER feed somebody who will not (Or cannot) pay for it. (It would affect profits)

Storing excess meat outdoors in large piles next to PETA offices would not be a waste. And I did offer other suggestions that don't involve trying to help people who can't pay.
People today are educated enough to repeat what they are taught but not to question what they are taught.
