What happened to states rights? Wasn't that the rationale of getting rid of RoweVWade? Oh yeah, that was another lie. Of course it was.

The one bright side of this article is that it's coming from The New Republic, which is traditionally more conservative. And the author is calling out how sad this plan is.
edit: I'm wrong? This never happens! see reply below.

Of all the things to rally people around…
Children should not have to bring money to school to eat. A nutritious and tasty meal should be provided free. Their only worries in school should be whether they studied enough to pass an exam, not on their grumbling stomachs. This is dystopian garbage.

It's like they say, universal free school meals leads to a lazy population and communism.
Jokes aside, I really don't understand their fear of anything that resembles socialized programs.

Aren't these the same people who claim that an unborn baby has every right to live, even if they're only like 4 cells and still dividing? Does like... that right to life just end once they're birthed? I really don't get how these people justify their stupidity.

Oh wait..
I'm just sad for the US now. Hope you guys will get better times soon.
Vote em out! not voting is complacency. Not voting is showing that this is acceptable.
I'm not saying voting is the only action needed, but it is an absolute bear minimum.
that's a weird priority to have... even weirder to be so proud to announce it

Pure cruelty. Our taxes ment to be used to help people and this means more then paving roads (which in the US isn't done). I'm sick of this idea the government needs to cut spending but then they just cut social programs that is the whole point of having a government.....

So depriving children of food is a "priority" for them. I don't know how to describe that other than "disgraceful".
