Actually I worked for a school district and companies such as Kotex gave huge boxes of their products for free. I suppose they feel that they will have users for life by product placement. Toothpaste companies did the same thing.
Paving the road to hell.
That is so racist!
;o)
What NYC city schools should REALLY be doing is offering a free education.
I do not have a problem with this, in fact, I think it is a an excellent idea to have this made available to female students should they need them. Every now and then out of all this socialistic nonsense there really does come a practical and useful idea that is genuinely helpful to young students. However, I do think there should be some controls on this, so the student can get what she needs at the moment, and not just a free for all for her entire family for the rest of their lives.
And I don’t thing think that those young men who fancy themselves women should be given any; no matter how much they imaging themselves to be female. If feel they must have some, let them buy their own.
Let their damn parents help them, why should I foot the bill?
Only the beginning, next will be to hire “professionals” to change them daily at the school for the hapless users.
The article said the cost to taxpayers would be about $160,000 per year. And you know it’s never going to go DOWN.
Education Department officials said the program will carry a price tag of roughly $160,000 this year.
What did they claim? 11,6000 receivers of this “gift”?
160,000.00 dollars for condoms (yes, they will be there too!) and tampons for 11,600 teenagers = 14.00 dollars PER CHILD per YEAR! OK. So it is a “good idea”.
Yeah, right. For whose publicity?
As I recall in my High School, such products were available in the ladies' room. They cost a dime each. Not a fortune, just enough to prevent exactly this from happening.
I thought that was a sensible solution. But then, I'm not a government kleptocrat.
Cui bono?
Whwn can I get some free Depends?
Somewhere lost in all this social justice nonsense is the education that is SUPPOSED to be the purpose of coming to this building every day. Alas, that has become derailed and kicked to the side in the manic attempt by libtards to wait on these lazy, arrogant slob students to see if they "feel" like learning today. I swear I've heard a teacher ask students that question.
The left is always looking for a new “right” to charge the taxpayers for. Soon, everything will be a right, and one’s entire paycheck will go directly to the government.
And that would be communism.
Damn they can’t afford to feed Demselves and not even take care of their most basic hygiene needs!
Sounds good. I am tired of people thinking they are owed.
OK.
They can clean the bathrooms to pay for this.
I cleaned toilets to help pay for my education.
Are these girls too damn good to do the same?
I was reading an article yesterday wailing that SNAP does not cover feminine hygiene products. So nowadays, yeah, it’s probably a problem.
Isn’t today’s America wonderful?
The Romans used the term: “Bread and circuses.”
Just before their civilization died. Only a few years after their Senate died in corruption and self-glory.
‘Nuf said.
