Yes this is wacky. I want to see children go hungry and die. There are absolutely NO social or economic drawbacks to free lunch. *SARCASM*
 
What the hell are you guys talking about?

HISTORY LESSON: SCHOOLS FUNCTIONED WITHOUT FREE LUNCH BEFORE AND EDUCATION WAS EVEN HIGHER AT THE TIME!

Question: Why should my tax dollars be spent for parents who have children when they can't afford to feed them? How is that my fault?

Question: If these kids are 5 years old at school, they were obviously fed up until then, so why can the parents suddenly not afford to feed them? Oh well, with that extra money in their parents pocket, they can go by some more booze and watch hours of mindless cable television.

We almost forgot about you .. what was your name.. Riprorin??

You really are just an extremist jerk.. God agrees with you and your love for his children
 
Hungry children don't learn well. Education improves not only the child, but society as a whole. If there's a need to feed the children, the children should be fed.
 
Sometimes it's hard being the only one right. You guys have fun taking your backwards steps in society.

You guys still haven't answered my question or countered my little history lesson, but of course that's not what liberal extremists like yourself do.

And if this is all we have to do to get rid of you .. then we are VERY happy

Bye

[zerdari mode on]Maybe the children of the poor parents should have all been aborted as to not weigh in on society[/zendari mode off]

Yep.....all working poor parents are alcholics and couch potatoes. You're a real piece of work!

Funny how you word that "working poor parents". If you were to look at statistics of poor people in this country you will find that they are more likely to own 2 televisions than none. They are more likely to subscribe to cable/satellite TV than not. They are more likely to consume alcohol each week than not to. Yet we must sacrifice tax dollars from everyone to pay for their childrens lunches. Ridiculous.

Edit: They are also more likely to own 2 cars than none. In fact, here's some facts.

Those are the families receiving free lunch at school.

So? Punish every one of them for what a few do...or even 50%? Hell, let's make EVERYONE pay full price for lunch considering ALL school lunches are subsidized. Those so called poor people can have crumbs if they can't get enough money to pay for those! :roll:

Hell, let's eliminate public schooling all together. Nevermind that other countries are overtaking the US in education including engineers and scientists.

I'll trade the free luch for no more money spent in Iraq, big oil tax breaks, corporate tax welfare, etc?

You also wish your buddies in the courts would change that law so poor people could be forced to be sterilized and that the elderly could be retroactively aborted.. right?

There should be methods in place to prevent individuals from extorting society.
 
it's the right thing to do for underpriviledge kids. there are kids here in the US that only get a nutritional meal once a day, at school. however, i would still support strict control of who qualifies.

That I can agree on. Hell, I would love to see welfare recipients in general have more strict guidelines. Too many riding four wheelers and hunting, fishing and playing around when they are supposedly injured/disabled and can't work. I think that there should be follow up investigations as I think that the money spent on such investigations would more than pay for itself in the scammers shaved off the rolls (and make them pay back what they have received).
 
yeah and we can't forget that it isn't the child's fault. but if social services were given a little bite in their investigative (and follow through) power then we could find that perfect compromise.

Exactly, look what free lunch programs contribute to our overall education.

Again my point is that the majority of poor people have needless luxuries that can be disposed of in exchange for feeding their children, encouraging him to go through school, etc Instead of the government bending over backwards for the mistakes these people make.

Oh well, let's keep making it okay to have children when we can't afford them. In fact, we should elminate any incentive to not have children when people can't afford them, because hey, the more people the better no matter who they're raised by! Uncle Sam will always come in to lend a helping hand even if it does have drastic social consequences.

Who writes your material for you, anyway?

Christ, LittleWhiteBoy, you're so right you'd need a telescope and a map to find your way back under the bell curve.

Great! So are you righties going to set the example by cutting out the corporate welfare, the handouts to big oil and pharma, and cutting off leeches on society like Delay and crybaby Stevens (among others)?
