I’ve often wondered if the kids in the house are on free school breakfast/lunches/(sometimes) dinner, do they also get food stamps? If so, why?
Yes, most of the children who are receiving free school lunches and breakfasts, and now late afternoon dinners as well come from families which are recipients of food stamps.
In fact, schools are increasingly now serving meals to students and even non school attending family members on weekends and over the summer break when school is not in session.
The excuse given for the free meals at school is so “no child must go hungry”
Ironically, the whole concept and rational for why Food Stamps were created in the first place was so “so the children would not go hungry”.
The reality is the food stamps are now just another form of currency in the underground black market economy and schools are being used as conduits to supply free food to people to allow them use their food stamps as currency on underground black market for under the table cash, drugs smokes or booze..
