A perfect example of the strings attached when government funds something. Ostensibly, the program is designed to provide school lunches for needy kids. (I know it covers a lot more than the needy kids now.) Now, unless a school gets with the social engineering agenda of the government — or any other cause it wants to push — well, I guess that’s just too bad for the kids. Of course, I expect most public schools will comply. It would be nice if more schools would follow the lead of the Archdiocese of St. Louis and find alternatives so they can tell the feds where to shove their lunches.
The old axiom still applies. Whatever the government funds, the government runs.
