    While I understand the sentiment, I think it’s a little over the top despairing. Kids DO get free lunch and breakfast where I live. The district and parents banded together to even make sure this continued all throughout COVID.

    “Where I live” is the best I can do. I can’t guarantee it gets done everywhere. But I also don’t want to act like nothing ever gets done anywhere. While you’re cursing the darkness, a lot of people are out there lighting candles.

      Same here. Free lunches for all …. And there are still conservatives who actually proposed fingerprint readers to prevent any kid from getting extras. What. The. Fuck.
