What types of poor decisions?

Poor decisions with regard to the use of their natural (i.e. God-given) talents. Nobody is ever going to make perfect decisions in all areas of their lives, and that's not what Jesus requires, either. After all, the whole point of people having different talents is for them to work to together so they can complement each other's abilities.

From the top level comment of the comment thread I read it as finance as that's the thing related to food in the original post.

My point was merely to show that the biblical Jesus does in fact stop investing in people because he's not seeing any results from them. It's not really my fault if you're reading in things about shareholder value or whatever, is it?

Supply Side Jesus on the other hand tells us that it's not worth investing our time and resources into people who are poor, and that instead the rich will lead us to have an efficient church.

Yes, but remember that Supply Side Jesus is a caricature, and it's created by exaggerating certain aspects of Jesus and diminishing others. But so is socialist Jesus, who only heals and feeds people for free and never asks for anything in return.

That is fundamentally backwards to Christianity, as it is the poor, the hurt and the suffering who need it the most.

I agree, and there are plenty of exhortations on that in the Gospel where Jesus reminds people to use their riches to take care of the poor among them. But he does not let the poor off the hook either, like in the story you mentioned earlier with the poor woman giving what little she has being more righteous than the rich man who donates very little. Meanwhile, proponents of socialist Jesus seem to think they should only ever receive blessings and not be asked to give anything back. They are like the guy in the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant, who had his debt forgiven by his master and then beat up his fellow man for owing him a fraction of that.

The long and short of it is that in order for the whole Jesus thing to work, you cannot just sit around all day and wait to be fed. You do at least have to make an effort to contribute something, however little it might me, otherwise you're wasting your talents.
