the schools need to do something to get the lard of the kids.

And therein lies the problem. We do NOT need the government raising our kids!

Here's a novel idea: Parents raise their children as they see fit; schools educate them in reading, writing and 'rithmetic.

You can't have it both ways. That's how we got where we are.

Exactly. Why do they have vending machines in the first place?

Again, I support districts being able to make their own decisions on this subject. Have 'em, don't have 'em. What I do not agree with is government telling school districts that they "are not allowed".

I totally did not mean that they way it sounded. It just annoys me no end that many schools suffer from liberal think and have stopped gym class because it's hard, or degrading for the kids who are no good at it, or whatever. Heck, some districts are not even allowing children to run at recess, because it is too dangerous.

I so far have been pretty lucky with my district. However, if it gets much more leftie, I will be homeschooling.
