Where can I get numbers on starvation in Detroit and Flint?

Is anyone studying poverty in Michigan? Or would these numbers show up in county 'cause of death' statistics? Is starvation an official cause of death? Possibly would hospitals and doctors have numbers on how many patients they've treated for malnutrition? (I'm guessing not unless someone was studying and tracking it)



As an aside, if you want to see real answers from the Obama campaign about how he'd deal with poverty and economic problems, some are posted on MOMocrats. So go read them. :)

If you want actual statistics about this, you might want to get in touch with Michael Beebe with the State. His contact information is at the bottom of this page.
