    To all you folks complaining about how such a policy would make the very poorest children not get anything to eat during a time of especially great hardship. Yes I know some kids will literally starve because of this, but have you for even a second considered thinking about things from a billionaire’s perspective and what they have to go through? Just for once? Yeah, I didn’t think so.

      All the extra money going to the poors wasted when it could be going into MY pockets. They should work a side gig on the weekend to get the money for lunch! In the end, it will teach them about economics at a young age.

      I mean, don’t they already? Whoever has the contract for supplying the food to the schools is making bank, especially if they can keep the politicians on their side.

      I said this on the place that won’t be named, and got downvoted. Poor dumb people are FAR easier to control/exploit than well educated people who have a financial safety net (be it private or social).
