Not everyone is Ghandi, nor should they be. The fact that he is trying this out for a week is 100% more effort put into understanding poverty and hunger in America than is being put forth by any other politician. I have lived on food stamps, I am barely making over minimum wage now (just enough to keep me off assistance programs, really), and I am grateful someone is actually talking about this on a national level.
