For some reason I am slightly bothered by the free lunch stats.. no one should be starving, but for some reason I feel scammed as a taxpayer being that there are free rides for almost 100% of the students at some of those schools all the way down to the last $1.50 for lunch.. I’ll support it for the kids secondarily, but I think primarily it’s the parents responsibility to take care of that.. can these students parents really not afford that? It’s almost opportunistic/greedy sounding, or maybe I am…
I would guess that most of these kids parents are illegals and are paid under the table at their jobs.. so they’re not paying taxes… maybe in other ways they are making equivalent contributions through civic duty, but I just don’t believe that there is any loyalty to the united states from them so why the free lunch..
