Capitalists will have children go without food before they give up even the tiniest part of their wealth.

I’ve actually asked Republicans why they’re against feeding children.  They believe the kids are hungry because their parents aren’t working hard enough.  Republicans think people will work harder if their children are hungry.  In other words, they believe it’s okay to TORTURE CHILDREN to get their parents to do what they want. 

re-reblogging because THAT’S SOME SOCIOPATHIC SHIT

More and more large urban school districts are switching to universal free lunch and eliminating even the mechanism for “lunch debt”.  They found it was cheaper and more effective to just use Federal Free Lunch money (through a specific grant) to give everyone free lunch rather than fund the bureaucratic steps of having parents register for free lunch.  

Houston is the most recent.  New York City adopted it last year.   It looks like this tweet might have been part of a campaign to convince Buffalo Public Schools to adopt the same program.  I can’t find a clear news article on it but it looks like they may have rolled out this program in Buffalo in the fall of 2017.

This is a really good issue to pester your city official and school district about.
