    What would you pay 3 dollars for? 3-4 dollars a week got me lunch as a kid bcz we were so destitute and broke. Taking that away means kids go hungry. But, kids only matter when they’re unborn, am I right?

      No one is stopping you from starting your own charity to make up for it and you can also donate plenty of your own money to it.

        It never ceases to amaze me the callouses of some people, their unwillingness to help anybody else if it doesn’t somehow benefit them directly. It’s such a short minded way of viewing the world. You must be a very lonely person.

            Well, for starters you’re calling it waste feeding kids from poor families with school lunches. (Which is the comment i made) As if they did something wrong being poor.

              I didn’t say that was a waste. I said the Education Department wastes a lot of money.

                Ohh, so now you’re walking back statements you literally just made. At least you’re honest about it. Maybe stop and think about what these government cuts will affect before making blanket statements calling it all waste.
