amazing that we have so many talented legislators, lawmakers and leaders and a bureaucracy that bows to no one else globally,, and an economy that once led the free world and fed it too.. and now.. we lag.. we pass legislation that takes jobs away, we turn food into fuel and refuse to tap the natural resources at home..

hundreds of thousands of children go to bed hungry.. yet FLotUS says we're a nation of fatties.. like I said .. amazing

It seems to many in elected office, Job #1 is getting re-elected and using OPM to do so and then pretending they are doing it ‘for the children’.

Why doesn’t everyone just give up their children to the state? They can house and clothe them too. Already doing 2/3 of daily meals.

Just a step or 2 more and we’ll have full time institutional care for kids whose “parents who are away from home for long hours”

Dope dealing is long hard work

All for THREE TENTHS OF ONE PERCENT (0.3%) of the student population.

In a school of 1,000 children this 0.3% is, wait for it, THREE children!

Wonder what it will cost that one school to provide dinner for THREE children? A cook for starters, someone to supervise, someone to keep the lights on and someone to administrate the program. I count at least FOUR people who will be paid overtime each school day all for THREE children out of each 1,000!

Is it any wonder we are broke? Does this make you want to go out in the street and SCREAM?

Wow, so they can eat ammonia treated beef? Yum! http://www.foodsafetynews.com/2010/01/yuck-factor-ammonia-in-your-beef/

Seriously, don’t these people already get food stamps? How much more can we take?

I don’t understand what’s wrong with our politicians. Why didn’t they name it the “Healthy, Happy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010”?

Don’t these kids deserve to be happy too?

If their parents can’t feed them, why not re-open all those orphanages and just put the starving childrens there?

Why not?

We give certain people free housing (Section 8), free medical care (Medicaid and Obamacare), free sex (social standards), free breakfast and lunch at school, free food (food stamps) why not free dinner?

Why not free everything... paid for by us.

I hadn’t heard the word “supper” since I was a little kid.

Don’t we already have

WIC,
food stamps,
free breakfast and lunch at school for low-income kids?

I bet a union (probably SEIU) benefits from this somehow (more employees = more union members = more dues $).

Oh, this is just so cool.

The indoctrinators will have the kids from early in the morning for breakfast, through school, through afterschool and now through supper. Probably right at 12 hours total. Subtract 8-10 hours for sleeping and you can see how much time the parent(s) will get with their kid.

We are so screwed. Exceedingly glad I’m an old guy. Feel very, very sorry for those coming up. Of course, they have no idea what they’ll be missing ‘cause that’s no longer taught, so what the hell.

Let’s all say it together, shall we. “Nanny State.”

I wonder how many white kids will benefit from this. My guess is close to none.

I suspect the fat, lazy, ‘at risk’ inner city kids’s schools and the various race hustlers and shakedown artists in the vicinity will get the $, as in the masters of food service workers branch of the SEIU.

They’ll get free supper but still end up losing their education and their futures to the big teacher’s unions and other corrupt left wing organizations.

The old cotton plantations gave out free food too....

That, and what did these so-called needy parents do with the money they were already given to feed their children? This is simply another redistribution of wealth scheme.

It also is meant to remand children to the education system so it has more time to propagandize them and make them less dependent on Mommy and/or Daddy.
