I, for one, am TAPPED OUT on this paying to feed these poor children over and over and over again. Now 3 meals a day, plus they take food home on weekends, and THEY ARE STILL GETTING ALL THE FOOD STAMPS.

Someone in the GOP needs to make an issue of this, AT LEAST propose an option that the kids either get meals at school OR the parents get the food stamps, but NOT BOTH.

The media is so incompetent in not asking these questions, as well, and just reporting on how it makes better students if the kids are not starving all the time.

You being tapped out has nothing to do with it. It's not THEIR money, so they don't care. To think that entitlement programs would shrink under anyone's leadership is laughable.

Imagine the MSM headlines- "GOP to Cut Food for Infants and Toddlers"

But if we ask questions such as you propose then the media and Democrats will claim that Republicans want kids to go hungry. Its like we are trapped on issues like this. Any changes or cutbacks will be spun by liberals as the GOP wanting to cut back social programs for no good reason.

AGREED

I’m sick of going to Winn Dixie here and seeing them use their EBT buying sodas, chips and coming up for the super bowl they will have their barbecue food ready for the party.
Then they get in a nice vehicle and my kids have told me that they know the mothers kids and they get free food at school too..

The traditional proud family has nearly gone thanks to liberals, socialists, and communists.
