      Because once we start doing socialism for kids, people will start asking for socialism for everyone, and the ultra rich wants to keep that under control.

        You’re right. It’s better than free. It sets those kids up for a healthier life, making them more well rounded into adulthood. It’s a highly returning investment in our future.

            “If they’re going to die they’d better do it and decrease the surplus population!” Okay, Ebenezer, you go off.

        How much will the children have to pay each time they get a lunch? Or is it more like a subscription where they pay per month or something?

        Not shit Sherlock, taxes would pay for it. Better to have our money feeding fat kids than buying more bombs for the IDF.

        Your weight loss solution is starvation then? That’ll kill 'em faster than obesity will.
