Trump Will Destroy Children's Lives Just For a Political Jab

You don't think that 180 meals over the course of 9 months or so, doesn't make a difference? That is just stupid. I always brought my lunch to school, sometimes it was healthy and sometimes it wasn't but even at that age, I understood that what you eat for lunch matters. You post a lot of really dumb things on here... and this was yet another.

If you are asking me that if student A and Student B were identical except for 180 lunches a year, and the other 900 meals were identical, could I tell which student was which? I would say no.

The site lists where parents can take their kids for these meals. Let’s be clear, you believe:

Parents who are too pathetic to feed their kids, are driving them around in search of these free meals? That’s what you believe is happening?

Here are the monitoring reports for federal reimbursement, so to answer your question. Apparently so.

I guess you have to double down on your ignorance. That's not the way it is at all. Is that what you believe is happening?

I think your monitoring report only further proves my point. Most areas don’t even have one of these programs. I believe I counted a total of 30 areas?

So the other kids are starving outside of those 30 areas listed right?

What do you feel the monitoring report proves?

Truthfully, I'm a little surprised that the folks that are liking that post would be surprised to believe that poor people wouldn't take advantage of entitlement programs like free food. I mean, isn't this drag on America one of the things they like to grouse about so often?

Apparently they don't believe in the very thing they whine about is actually occuring.

Nutty.

Do you believe all kids have plenty of food to eat all the time? If so, you have delusions about hunger in the US. My old church fills up weekend food bags for second graders at a local elementary school. Teachers discovered that many of their students had no food at home on the weekends. The Methodist, Disciples, Presbyterian and Catholic churches in that town adopted the other grades. If kids had food, the school gave the extra bags to help feed the families of kids who got them. Our church got thank you notes from kids, teachers, neighbors, parents, grandparents and other family members. This is an example of hunger at a public school in a small KY town.

Here’s what I don’t believe:

That we’d have some epidemic of mass starvation without wasting these government funds. Given that there’s only 30 sites doing this, you must believe the children across the rest of the state are starving

Where I lived in Knoxville only poor kids ate school lunch..like line with a punch card that had the regulated food. The rest of us either brought our own or purchased from the snack bar...but mostly brought our own

Why do you believe these kids were hungry is the real question? I have no doubt some kids aren’t fed as regularly as they’d like. I’m not convinced mass starvation would occur without your program. But I do believe what you’re doing is the role of churches and not government

I just read in the paper that last night in my town, the police found a woman and 2 small children living in a car at a grocery store parking lot. The local Dept of Children's Services took away a 4 year old and an 18 month old from a 22 year old mother living in her car. Their diapers and underwear were badly soiled, and hadn't been changed in some time, and both children had bad rashes from that. After DCS told the woman to change them immediately, she acted unconcerned, so they kept the kids. Some things can't be fixed.

Obviously, there are other variables to consider. The premise of your argument, however, is ignorant.

The teachers learned that the children didn't eat at home. They were ravenous when they got back to school on Monday. The church does not believe it is preventing mass starvation, but it is glad to have found a way to serve needy local people and fight hunger in our area. Christians are supposed to feed the hungry but they don't feed everyone, which is why there are government programs. That is one type of government spending I can never oppose.

Odd you claim Christians are supposed to feed the hungry but don’t. Yet also claim to be a Christian who feeds the hungry. You’ll have to help me with this

That people are using it? Based on those monitoring reports, quite a few.

I'd say that the chances are pretty high that yes, there are quite a few kids going hungry outside of those areas where the assistance is rendered.

You initially asserted that the summer months would result in starving kids without the availability of school meals. You were shown the summer program that fills that gap, now you're implying since it's not available everywhere it's not what possible that there are kids out there who aren't hungry and whose major source of sustenance couldn't possibly be school meals?

Weird flex as your points get dismantled by facts.
