Well, it started at free lunch, but heck, why stop there? If they were really concerned about the kid’s nutrition, they would have free breakfast and dinner too!
Not only that, most of those kids live in messy unsanitary houses. Much better if we build a building next to the school where they can all stay in clean, government regulated comfort. And just think, the athletic fields are right there, so they can get healthy exercise.
And what about clothes? Lots of under privileged children are made to feel bad because they can’t afford stuff as nice as their rich classmates. Let’s make it equal by putting everyone in the same stuff. Nice elegant brown shirts for the boys, and smart “Hillary-style” blue pantsuits for the girls!
Of course, since they would have a lot more time on campus, they would probably benefit from club activities like “Obama Youth”, “Young People’s Atheist Society”, etc.

In Memphis they don’t have “rich classmates”, most of them live in the suburbs and/or go to private schools.
