No one really expected anyone in the Obama administration to make any criticism of the Wide Load did we?
This is the biggest bunch of muppets to ever hit office.
They all toe the Obama line.
Aren't snacks counter to the wookies' stop obesity program?
How about getting the federal government out of the school meals business? I don’t care what their mandatory menu is — they should have nothing to do with school lunches in the first place. It is completely beyond any federal responsibility authorized by the Constitution, at least by any normal reading of it. If there is a real need for any of this, I can’t think of anything more suitable for handling at the state and local level.
Is this a preview of the fema camp diet?
Bumblers in the WH are blind to the fact that frivolous laws teach people to break them. Watch for a black market in food at schools.
If any politicians had any spine this ought to be the ultimate teaching moment about the results of “one-size-its-all, top-down” planning of socialists / fascists / marxists.
But therein lies a new problem. Who will pay for the snacks? Sounds like some new money is needed from us to be sure the children have enough to eat since the new lunch program is more expensive but less food. Probably needs another 40% increase in budget for the snacks program.
Missing from this is the concept of each family taking care of their own children.
We’re supposed to sit around helpless and let the government feed our kids? Uh, no, make a sandwich for Junior at home, Skip.
My advice is—don’t eat school lunches. Keep money out of the lib public school system.
I didn’t eat school lunches for the last two years of high school. The kids had a “fund raiser” thing at noon—sold cokes and candy bars for band or football. Ate a Snickers and a Cherry Coke out of my locker—dollar lunch—best shape of my life. Hate Snickers even now though... used the rest of the “lunch money” to buy comic books (65 to 75 cents—an extra five bucks went a long way!) and paperbacks.
The Worst President Ever ridicules “trickle down economics” that “put us into this mess,” when it was his Marxist agenda that has killed this economy. Yet, with all their Big Government programs, including the student-lunch fiasco, they decree what the states must do....the ultimate in “trickle down government programs.” Romney really should hop on this school lunch problem because it affects all classes of families.
Why not just give them enough to eat at lunch?
Even if it’s a big lunch, a normal kid will probably be hungry again a couple hours after they eat it.
They are just ripping the kids off ,stealing kids lunch money
