How about the government butts out of what kids eat or don’t eat? Let the parents decide.
Sorry Michelle....Thes children have parents. It’s ABSOLUTELY none of your business what they should eat.
Exactly. It’s up to parents to TEACH our children to make their own good choices, not take their choices away. As a lunch room mom, I see the children throw 90% of the food they had no choice away. It seems odd that the answer to “hungry Kids” is hungry kids!
The do a terrible job teaching right now. The response is to also allow them to provide terrible meals to the kids as well? Make them dumb and indoctrinated and also provide crappy nutrition and meals?
These are two major criteria that define a cult. Brainwashing and malnutrition. Truancy laws give the third criteria, namely you have to be there and can’t leave when you want.
Government schools are a cult.
I agree.
In fact, note that the following excerpts indicate that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to make policy for INTRAstate schools.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Also note that schools unsurprisingly don’t seem to understand the following. Consider that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting Supreme Court justices had clarified Congress is prohibited from appropriating taxes in the name of state power issues, intrastate schooling in this example.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."—Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
The only reason that school administrators comply with federal government school policies is the following imo.
Military training issues aside, low-information administrators don’t seem to understand that all federal funding for intrastate schools is arguably state revenues that the feds have stolen from the states in the form of unconstitutional federal taxes, taxes that Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers, evidenced by Gibbons excerpt above.
In other words, administrators probably don’t understand that the feds should not be dictating how the states should manage state revenues, intrastate schools an example. (Corrupt federal lawmakers provide unconstitutional federal funding for intrastate schools to buy votes from low-information voters imo.)
Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!
Remember in November ’18 !
Since Trump entered the ’16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the ’18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist Supreme Court justices off of the bench.
In fact, if Justice Gorsuch turns out to be a liberal Trojan Horse then we will need 67 patriot senators to remove a House-impeached Gorsuch from office.
Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February ‘18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.
While I Googled the primary information above concerning Iowa and New Hampshire, FReeper iowamark brought to my attention that the February primaries for these states apply only to presidential election years. And after doing some more scratching, since primary dates for most states for 2018 elections probably haven’t been uploaded at this time (March 14, 2017), FReepers will need to find out primary dates from sources and / or websites in their own states.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.
Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers listed above.
You’ve got THAT right! Sure, there are some parents who really do feed their kids nothing but junk, and that’s not good. But her answer was to give them what sure looked unpalatable to me, and kids were throwing it out, so what purpose did it achieve? And, as another person posted, how hypocritical of her to demand what public school kids were served, when her girls got to eat from a gourmet school menu, every day? I’ll bet they wouldn’t have eaten her public school lunches, either.
