All this money and effort for crap lunches most kids throw away?
This is such BS back iin my day that was the parents responsibility to feed the dam kid I live right accross from an elementary school they all line up at the cafateria at 7 am to go in and eat a tax payer breakfast then lunch
we need to become experts at hiding income, or work less, or learn how the rich do it.....
we are being soaked by the govt and there is no end to it....
Way to undermine parental responsibility, thank you nanny staters.
.... And the money for this crap is somehow always magically available for this Administration .... but there is never additional funds available for the defense of America.
“Officials at St. Paul public schools recently announced theyre working with the local food bank Second Harvest to dispatch a mobile food truck to expand locations offering students free lunches during the summer.”
Oddly, the article fails to mention the amount of federal dollars to this free lunch program.
For every "free lunch" that is provided to a kid in school, there is an entire industry of food producers and a giant bureaucracy of school employees working to figure out how to get the government to feed the damn kid 35 meals a day.
awesome!
So why don't they have to pay for the meals with food stamps?
Even worse, the “parents” receive money to buy food for these prospective young gibsmedats; whole generations are growing up with gubmint as the nanny...
That’s a lot of daily meals (35)... reflow
Then no gym class and grows a fat ass .....
No, you mean the government theft of my hard earned tax dollars taking food out of my children's mouths. Never mind welfare was supposed to feed those kids so they're getting double benefits.
Can’t feed your kids ? You shouldn’t have had any. Permanent situation ? Go to jail at nominal wages until your kids are fed or until a charity (NOT goobermint) picks up your tab.
if these parents are not feeding their children with food stamps then the state needs to remove the child because the parent is neglecting them. I don’t really believe this as liberals are just handing out free stuff for votes
Next, they will be feeding the “children” until they are 25. Impossible, you say? Fifty years ago, who would have believed any of this could happen?
This has got to stop. Big government is overreaching time and time again. When did it stop being the parent’s or guardian’s responsibility to feed and care for their children and start being the government’s. Besides, parents on welfare programs already get food for this purpose, right?
I wonder if each lunch will come with a toy like a Mickey D “happy meal”? I certainly hope so. Parents already know it’s the toy, not the meal that’s important, right?.
And while I’m on the subject and in the spirit of the moment, why not have the FCC give the starving poor a computer, Internet broadband access, and subsidize Mickey D’s or Domino’s to deliver hot lunches down to the ghetto on demand 24x7. After all, it’s their Constitutional right to expect you and I, the working poor, to feed their fatherless kids while they sit around on their lazy a$$es watching Jerry Springer reruns and eating their kid’s lunches.
There, I feel better, don’t you?
The government is acknowledging that the worst place for an urban minority child is with the animals that “birthed” them; whites would be locked up/have their children seized if they treated (or should I say “ignored”) their offspring the way those that breed golden-ticket welfare bastards for cash do.
Rather than have these “parents” held to account, and knowing they simply won’t feed their children anyway, the gubmint uses our money to feed them (twice - via food stamps and schools).
Here's a basket of Michelle's peaches, kids will really like this.
