What's a more basic responsibility than feeding your kids?

But hey, let's make sure the next generation knows the government provides their most basic needs. Not their parents/family. It will make them easier to control.

Spokane Public Schools are providing free lunch to every kid in the district next year.
Coming soon to WA school district near you.
They aren't learning jack shit for the taxpayer money. I guess feeding them is a bit of an ROI on our property taxes and levys
Marcus Ricelli is a special kind of evil. Always the front guy on the save-the-world/decriminalize crime shit.
Seriously, how hard is it to get your kids some food before they head out. They don't need a full blown giant country breakfast. Boil some eggs on Sunday night and they can have them all week. Even now eggs can be bought for 25 cents each. Add it some oatmeal and you have something that takes almost no time and costs less than $1.
And the food they feed the kids is garbage.
This just allows kids and parents to be lazier and fatter and good training for when the government tells them what to do.
Arguments in favor usually succumb to the "won't someone think of the children" logical fallacy. An appeal to emotion.
I remember when being on free/reduced lunch was a stigma that parents wanted to avoid and get out of if they got into that position. It was temporary and transitional for most.
"Young Americans are increasingly too overweight or undereducated to join the U.S. military, according to a growing number of both retired and active-duty military leaders."
Out of feeling poor comes the next generation of go-getters.
School lunches are crap. My kids wouldn’t eat them.
Oh wait...that's free APARTMENTS, not food.
Chicken, rice, and veggies shouldn’t be that hard
Just once would love to go back and have fishsticks on Friday and mashed potatoes and gravy circa 70s style.
The pizza was hit and miss.
But the Throbber fucking loved hot lunch for the most part. The little ice cream cups with half vanilla and have orange. The scoop full of sugary peaches and cherries and pineapples. Goddamned delicious.
"I'm not going to get worked up about limiting how many rounds of ammo I can buy at one time, it's not like they are banning guns..."
That's how it works. Little steps so people don't get too worked up. Then let the dust settle for a bit, then take the next step.
"Who cares if gays get married, that doesn't hurt you".
It's called progressive for a reason. They literally never stop.
The powers that be know this and are trying to retard America's future by snuffing out the potential of our future generations.
- Chicken fried steak/mashed Potatoes
- Taco salad
- Hamburger/fries
Were really the only things I touched in grade school. HS was closed campus but we left and went to the sub shop or whatever anyway.
My junior year they brought in Taco Bell and I think Quiznos to sell ala cart in an effort to keep kids on campus.
Anyway, we loved school lunch in grade school, but no one was eating that shit in HS. Some parents don’t have time/means to make their kids lunch every day so school lunch should be reasonably healthy and it should be subsidized. Underserved communities depend on it and I have no interest in trying to make the argument that clipping it from the budget makes any sort of sense.
I’d rather get rid of the army of administrators that suck blood from the education budget like a school of lampreys or the 30% or so of teachers who are utterly useless and are only in education because they’d be a failure in any other sector than anything else.
At the end of the day we need to be doing what we can to make it health(ier) and make it available. One of the few things I really supported out of the Obama admin. The execution sucked but the philosophy was sound.
