yeah especially the food-at-schools issue is just so obvious. just provide free breakfast / lunch etc. doesn't even have to be complicated, even if the schools just provided a liter of milk a day, it would be something and better than nothing.

there's a whole lot of things that schools could provide even if they don't have a cafeteria / kitchen in the building. stuff like lunch boxes: bread with vegetables, cheese, jam, etc.

    I can at least understand where people come from when they claim that adults who can work don't have a right to food. I don't necessarily have to agree with it, but I understand it.

    But why doom their kids? An 8 year old shouldn't have their studies affected because they're hungry because their parents are poor. That's antithetical to the American Dream they tend to talk so much about.
