Creation of "Meals on Wheels" was snuck into a spending bill by Senator Ted Kennedy. He knew the role of government was to "make gentler the human condition".

Given the very high rates of anxiety and depression we are seeing in young adults I wonder if this type of intervention might help the volunteers who are doing the calling too? Might be a win/win.
