House Republicans Want to Ban Universal Free School Lunches

Wherever it is, its disgraceful & those supporting this ought to be thoroughly ashamed of themselves - & would be, if they had an ounce of empathy.

 Heaven forfend that a hungry child should be fed. This isn't about the chance of kids being 'wrongly fed'; its about the sheer greed & mean spiritedness of those supporting this. People who clearly have no problem with children going hungry as long as they don't have to pay anything.
It might be interesting to switch it around & tax the wealthy at an eye wateringly high rate for each hungry child....


"The Cato report blames people who may “improperly” redeem free lunches, even if they are technically above the income cutoff levels. The “fraudulence” the think tank is concerned about is not some shadowy cabals of teachers systematically stealing from the school lunch money pot: It’s students who are being fed, even if their parents technically make too much to benefit from the program. In other words, Republicans’ opposition to the program is based on the assumption that people being “wrongly” fed at school is tantamount to abusive waste."
