Those who are eligible for subsidized lunch are often also eligible for food stamps. Is there any logical reason a parent shouldn't have to use part of their food stamp allotment to pay for subsidized school meals?

It would actually be empowering for the parents to be able to choose the best way to budget their food allowance. It would also cut down on the food that's thrown away. It is true, there are children who throw a lot of their free food away and eat stuff they brought to school instead.

What’s even more irritating is that schools now promote these ‘FREE’ meals, throughout the summer! And, guess what? You don’t even have to be of school age to receive this ‘FREE’ meal!

All compliments of you, me and the other taxpayers.
