You sound poor. I've never once been asked to sign up for free lunch.SFGbob said:
They have been trying to get me to sign up for free lunch since my kids started school, it has nothing to do with income. My kids say that the other kids look at them as suckers because they actually pay for their own school lunches.Bendintheriver said:In 2017 there were 56 million students in K-12. 22 million of them received free lunches. The poverty rate is 12%.
There are a lot of people gaming the system. -

It's 2019 in the richest country in the world and you're arguing over whether hungry people and their children deserve to get foodYellowSnow said:
JFC @BearsWiin . It's an accurate observation of the way the welfare state works in the country. I for one am somewhat intrigued by the UBI concept because it's a way of providing for some basic needs w/o removing disincentive to work for most people.BearsWiin said:

Yes, because everyone who gets food stamps is hungry and in need of food. And why do you lie and continue to claim that this has anything to do with children and food?BearsWiin said:

We have the lowest unemployment rate in 50 years. Anyone who wants a job can get a job. Unless you're disabled, why is anyone getting Food Stamps? Get a fucking job and get your hand out of my pocket.
For BearsWin mooching and living off the labor of others is normal behavior so of course he doesn't see any problem with it. -
Feed the babies who don't have enough to eat
shoe the children with no shoes on their feet
House the people living in the streeet
...Ah fuck 'em, they're all takers anyway -
Show me where all these 700k are mooching off the system.SFGbob said:

Not to mention this is peanuts compared to the $1.5 trillion plus given to the wealthy and corporations. -
@BearsWiin you're far more lettered that me so act like it and make and intellectual's argument here instead of this gibberish. I am completely fine with wealth transfer payment to help those in need. This is a good thing and we have the GDP to pay for it. However, a major flaw in the way our current welfare state operates - broadly speaking - is that it creates disincentive to work- i.e., if you earn too much assistance gets cut off.BearsWiin said:

Ask yourself where this disincentive to work twaddle comes from, and why it's so important to you
Then we can talk -

AOC with the hot take. If you make people who are able to work in order to get government provided food, they will starve.RaceBannon said:Oh SNAP
