You seem to live in that mythical functional society...

Huh?

I didn’t mean to single out you. But one cannot assume that parents nowadays provide for their children as their counterparts did during your childhood. You said that parents should feed their children. But today too many parents lack the capacity or the inclination (or both) to do so properly and regularly. Decades ago, America had a functional society with pockets of dysfunction; now, America increasingly has a milieu between pockets of partial functionality and dysfunction, the latter extreme in many areas (e.g., Detroit, Washington).

Now that the feds have enjoyed such unprecedented success at their schemes to ruin the economy, vastly more parents increasingly simply lack the resources (except government welfare benefits and charity aid) to feed their children adequately and regularly.

That said, if Nancy Pelosi wants some legislation, then I oppose it almost reflexively. Even if Republicans in the Congress support it and Democrats oppose it, that doesn’t make it good.
