Think about this. Then multiply it by millions.

Tonight I went to my son’s open house. The cafeteria went over lunch/breakfast costs. For 1 child to eat breakfast & lunch daily= $140/mo. I saw the look of panic in many parents eyes who didn’t realize the free lunch program had ended. Universal free meals @ school must happen.

If you can’t afford to feed your own kids, maybe you don’t deserve them. Just saying.

Beginning School Year 2022–23, California will become the first state to implement a statewide Universal Meals Program for school children. California’s State Meal Mandate is expanded to include both a nutritiously adequate breakfast and lunch for all children each school day

That's not right! ... Kids need to eat well every day or the'll become sick ... and if they become sick ... instead of being a productive member of our society ... they'll become a non-productive member ... and it will cost alot more than $140 a month to support them!

What I’m thinking about today is that we can’t speak with #MeToo sincerity. We can do titillating Patti Smith Teenage Angst riffs…yet that pales grossly compared to Gerry Spence‘s Winning Every Argument sincerity. peace, stability, loving kindness, compassion, freedom, joy❤️🙏🏽

Kids being hungry at school is unacceptable. Sanity needs to prevail. Must be part of the budget. Necessity

People living in the "richest country on earth" are concerned about cost of food for their kids?? Sure seems like a very poor country to me..

Fact

$140 per month = $7.00 per day. When you think how foods purchased in bulk should be cheaper than individual that’s a pretty steep figure.

Sorry to see so many trolls rushing to trash everything you say. It's a sign that the avaricious are worried you might be causing too many voters to care about the pain the avarice has inflicted.
