Do we means test individuals? Do we Check to see if other agencies aren't duplicating the efforts such as WIC. Should the recipient have to submit any information on how their family income is spent, I mean if Mom & Dad both have new(ish) vehicles financed would it be fair to have them make better choices...Do they get to have a $250.00 cable bill while we pay for the kids lunch. OR as usual "ALL HAIL THE RECIPIENT CLASS" Are we feeding all the kids or just some?? Like I said, the majority of kids at my kids school bring lunch. Up until last year parents did have to meet requirements to receive a discounted or free lunch as you can see in the last paragraph.

If the government thought like this, then why are they offering it to ALL families now? Do you think the "wealthy/middle class" people got the way they are without taking full advantage of any taxes or programs offered? There were many companies that took PP loans that didn't need So your comparing a company taking a not needed a pp loan to a kid getting a free piece of french toast and a glass of milk?? Really?? You're really out there man..like JT level.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Go to your local school today at noon and count how many kids show up to get a free lunch.. Do some simple math and let me know if they are feeding ALL the students in your district..

Seems you are missing the point. Some kids will take bag lunch, but NO KID will be paying for the lunch offered at the school district.

Now chromebooks are used in place of them. And they have to give them back at the end of the year and pay for them if they are broke. That's not free. Am I missing something? LOL great try.

It still cost the tax payers did it not? It will indoctrinate the kids to think the government will provide them with free Chromebooks for the rest of their lives!! Why should a parent making 200k a year get a free Chromebook when they have a nice car!!?? Amirite?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can justify this any way you want, but it is just making a bigger welfare state for the future and you know that, but you just want to try and dismiss it. That's what they want. If you really want to act this way, then why not give everyone a free firearm as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer254 Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share Posted August 13, 2021 Mark my words, as adults many of these kids will rely on food stamps, and think that it is just the way the world works. Just like they all did in school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure a kid can give back his lunch after he ate it, take about 24hrs, but I don't think you are going to want it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
