Only in America do we freely without question give billions away for no reason at all to companies already making billions in profit, but somehow find it a controversial subject whether or not we should feed hungry children.
When schools offer universal free meals, hungry kids eat. They also have better academic performance, behavior, attendance, and psychosocial functioning. These benefits should be available to all — with no questions asked, and no such thing as lunch debt. jacobin.com/2023/03/universa…

NPR did a segment on this today - enough money is allocated but less than 20% of it makes it’s way to the schools

Capitalism, American style, is all about greed, selfishness, lascivious profit, and letting babies starve because they wont fend for themselves to earn a living

I’ve asked you multiple times before but of course you don’t reply… which hungry children are not being fed?

When government is actually sponsored by corporations then lobbyists dictate the future.

I dislike when people say, 'we'. Speaking for myself 1. I am a victim subjected to #AmericanZersetzung. Part of this is that all my real & intellectual property has been stolen. 2. Whenever I'm in a position to be generous, I offer what I can.

What happened to the good old days when parents fed their children? I distinctly remember that happening.
