Because we need to teach kids that everything is free.

Make work for them until they can move on to real jobs. Give it to them? They become leeches and communists

“(This model) takes away the sting of embarrassment for a parent who maybe feels that way because they can’t feed their kid,” Paisley said.

Don't be surprised when you observe there are many people who won't be in the least bit embarrassed to fill their grocery carts full of free sh*t. Nope. They'll have no shame at all about doing it.

Yeah... good for them for trying to help out. I wish them the best and I pray the vultures and opportunists stay away so those with a true need can be helped out a little. I grew up on welfare and I still remember the embarrassment of spending food stamps. Definitely left an impression on me... something I never wanted to use again. I guess using an EBT card probably isn’t so embarrassing... maybe we need to bring back the food stamps.

Panera store opened here in Boston that allowed you to pay what you want, one cent, ten dollars, whatever. Guess what. It’s closing. Too many people paid the one cent I suspect.

Human nature never changes.

the kids need to know what the parent is going thru because it’s a lesson so the kids don’t just follow same incident or whatvere made for the problem.

Pasley store is not a real help just enabling bandaid. people need to learn to rebudget, accept minimal short term help and seek every opportunity for work not just the ones they feel like.

What parent can’t feed their kid(s) in America? What are they using all the FREE $ available in America for?

How much money do they have to do this?

No matter, it will never be enough.

I give the venture two years if not government subsidized.

Remember the Panera franchise that told people they could pay whatever they wanted for their purchases?

Gone.

He’s one of the once-rare far leftists in country. He even had a song lauding Obama’s election, which he admitted had to be subtly stated to avoid driving away the then-typical country audience.

Hope he’s got a clear-cut procedure to determine who is needy and who is not. The government never seemed to be able to do that.
