PC, do you take the mortgage deduction? Maybe count the rug rats as a tax deduction? EITC, perhaps?"Helicopter Moms" hover over their little ones .they cling, cloy .smother.
Some of the kids get to the point where they scream geeezz I can do it myself! Just let me live my life, will ya???
Its not healthy for a person- or a nation- to be infantilized.
Now, youre an adult and some stranger opens the door for you OK, thanks. But when that becomes every day, and they insist on sweeping the path to your car as well shouldnt you start to as ask yourself What the heck does this person want from me?
They want to make you happy according to their definition your whole life. Thats Liberalism.
And it starts at breakfast with your children ..
1. We start em young in dependency.. at the breakfast table! Principals responsible for increasing the numbers in the school breakfast program!!! Teach dependency, right up there with reading, math, discipline, and graduation rates.
a. In a locally unprecedented move, the School District of Philadelphia will hold principals accountable for the number of students eating breakfast in their schools. Breakfast participation will be part of the report card that rates principals each year, along with categories such as attendance and math and reading performance. In city schools, breakfast's now on the principal The head of each school will be held responsible for ensuring that students are well-fed. - Philly.com
2. School breakfast is now a universal freebie .regardless of need or family income!
a. In Pueblo, school officials take a counterintuitive approach: They offer free breakfast to all children regardless of income, so no one is embarrassed to be eating it. In most schools here, breakfast is served right in the classrooms. Feeding free breakfast to students who can afford to pay avoids the stigma for students who can't but don't want everyone to know. Serving breakfast in class means kids don't have to get there early to be fed, Kidd and other school nutrition directors say. Bus schedules, parents' work schedules, and, for high school students, the desire to sleep as late as possible make getting to school early for breakfast difficult.

c. The winner in the food lottery is New Mexico, where some 63% of students eat two meals a day in school.
3. But, what about the epidemic of obesity?? Doesnt the evidence suggest that the problem is hardly a lack of food? No problem for the well-intentioned Liberal-lobby! Just invent a new pathology, a new euphemism! While the kids may not be hungry, or undernourished, they are .ready? .food insecure!
"In 2010, children were food insecure at times during the year in 9.8 percent of households with children (3.9 million households.) In one percent of households with children,one or more of the children experienced the most severe food-insecure condition measured by USDA, very low food security, in which meals were irregular and food intake was below levels considered adequate by caregivers (Coleman-Jensen 2011, p. vi).

4. In an effort to increase the number of schools with a School Breakfast Program the Department of Public Instruction (DPI), the University of Wisconsin-Cooperative Extension, and the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board have issued the Wisconsin School Breakfast Challenge. The challenge is to encourage all public and private schools to implement a SBP if they currently do not offer one and to increase school breakfast participation by 50 percent in existing school breakfast buildings.
a. Mequon-Thiensville School District was the affluent Milwaukee suburb named winner for increasing in-school breakfast participation by 110% over the 2007-2008 school year. This community had a median family income of more than $107,000. The mean value of houses in which said children do not partake of breakfast was $471,353. Sykes, Nation of Moochers, p. 80.
5. Based on the above, I look forward to the argument put forth by professional Liberalism, geared toward supporting the idea that the implementation of unnecessary programs is anything but an attempt to grow government.
a. The avalanche of transfer payments are accepted by the public only if they are trained to accept what William Voegeli calls non-Euclidean economics, in which taxpayers are led to believe that all the goodies are paid for by someone else .the welfare state manages the perceptions of its cost s and benefits to encourage them to believe an impossibility: that every household can be a net importer of the wealth redistribution by the government.

Self-reliance?
Independence?
Stand on your own two feet?
Sure...right after we run to get the 'free' breakfast.
I think you should lead by example and dispense with your government handouts before you start throwing stones.
Do you support ending government funded school breakfast/lunch programs?
I support means-tested programs.....
...how about you?
aka redistribution of wealth socialism.
I agree with you.
Its not healthy for a person- or a nation- to be infantilized.
Yet it is healthy for a young child to eat breakfast.
Why bring up "Yet it is healthy for a young child to eat breakfast."
um....one of your own links had a chart demonstrating that child hunger was rising.Poor kids get a healthy breakfast.
Since you care so much how about you pay for it then? Oh that's right, I forgot, you folks are only charitable when someone else is footing the bill.
Wonder what the cost to our society is of haveing an entire group of kids that are growing up uneducated and unmotivated. And hungry. In case you missed out on this idea; hungry kids do not take to education as well as not hungry kids. Just can't teach the kid very well when their belly is growling. Oh well. So for the first and second graders, maybe they are hungry when reading is being taught. And they don't learn how to read very well. And they fall behind and they never get caught back up. And grow up to be young, single moms/dads, no HS diploma with no skills receiving welfare for three kids by two moms/dads; blah blah balh.
How much does breakfast cost?
You certainly are correct that kids are not educated...
...but, you will not find studies that show hunger.
It is a fabrication.
The breakfast and lunch program are simply designed to increase the size and role of government.

Rule no.1: Always try to expand;
Rule no. 2: see Rule no. 1."

I think you should lead by example and dispense with your government handouts before you start throwing stones.
Since you're changing the subject, I guess that I win the argument on the school food freebie...huh?
Here's a novel idea for Liberals...
...how about sticking to Article I, section 8, and have the federal government only use the powers granted therein.
So....wadda' ya' think about that?
Yet it is healthy for a young child to eat breakfast.
Why bring up "Yet it is healthy for a young child to eat breakfast."
Why indeed! What on earth does children eating breakfast have to do with schools providing breakfast meals to hungry children?
Solve that puzzle and you're well on your way to mastering this issue. I'd wait but I assume this is going to take you a while.

These schools are in the business of providing an education. Study after study shows that kids that eat breakfast do better in school. You can quibble with the choice of Lucky Charms as a breakfast food but you can't pretend that these schools aren't making an effort to turn out a well educated population. Some that might even learn that eating breakfast improves their lives.

There wasn't much of a free breakfast for big government give-away called the Homestead Act, but only those who were self-reliant, independent and capable of standing on their own two feet to the federal government up on the offer.
I know it's hard for you to understand that sometimes a socialist act creates a lot of capitalism in its wake:
Fergus Bordewich: How the West Was Really Won
The Homestead Act, which celebrates its 150th anniversary this weekend, offered free land to men and women willing to farm it. The law helped America become an economic superpower.
One hundred and fifty years ago, on May 20, 1862, Abraham Lincoln signed a bill that transformed the country. The Homestead Act offered 160 acres of free public land to settlers who would build a home on it and farm it for at least five years. Anyone 21 years old who was either a citizen or declared the intention to become one could stake a claim.
The law, declared Horace Greeley, the editor of the New York Tribune, was "one of the most beneficent and vital reforms ever attempted in any age or climea reform calculated to diminish sensibly the number of paupers and idlers and increase the proportion of working, self-subsisting farmers in the land evermore." Bombast aside, his words were not far from the truth.
In all, four million settlers would file homestead claims to 270 million acres in 30 states, 10% of the land mass of the United States. (The size permitted for homesteads was eventually increased to 640 acres as settlers moved into drier regions.) Although the number of claims dropped off during the Great Depression, hundreds continued to be filed annually through the 1960s. Homesteading ended in the lower 48 states in 1976 but continued in Alaska, where the last homesteader filed his claim in 1979.
....In tandem with settlers came the railroads, connecting rural communities to distant markets: Between 1860 and 1900, 80,000 miles of track were added between the Missouri River and the Rocky Mountains. Homesteading also helped drive the industrialization of the nation by stimulating the manufacture of corn planters, harvesters, binders, threshers, seeders, hay-stackers, reapers, windmills and eventually tractors. And no account of how the West was won can leave out the humble but brilliant invention that perhaps more than any other made farming on the open plains possible. It was barbed wire, which kept wandering cattle away from crops.
Helping the settlers were colleges initially financed with endowments of public landsalso opposed by Southern congressmen before the Civil War but established in 1862 by the Morrill Act. These land-grant colleges would develop improved methods of animal feeding, water-management and parasite control, and crop varieties that were better suited to the ecology of the plains.

Where is the study indicating that?
"schools providing breakfast meals to hungry children?"

You need a study showing you that schools provide breakfast? You just started a thread about it.
I have an idea. Move to Pueblo, run for school board, and work to discontinue their initiative. It sounds like you could use the work.
2. "It sounds like you could use the work."
My work here is education...and that is what discomforts you.

Just some friendly advice. That Heritage Foundation internship isn't going to last forever.
Aren't those kids that are getting free breakfasts and lunches already getting government assistance for their families to buy food?? If they're not feeding them breakfast, what are they doing with that $????
That's racist!!Aren't those kids that are getting free breakfasts and lunches already getting government assistance for their families to buy food?? If they're not feeding them breakfast, what are they doing with that $????
Yes, they are.
If a poor family qualifies for EBT (food stamps), they also qualify for free or reduced price meals in the school cafeteria.
Maybe the reason why the obesity rate is higher among poor children than it is for the rich or middle class children is because of all the free food we are giving them.
"Helicopter Moms" hover over their little ones .they cling, cloy .smother.
Some of the kids get to the point where they scream geeezz I can do it myself! Just let me live my life, will ya???
Its not healthy for a person- or a nation- to be infantilized.
Now, youre an adult and some stranger opens the door for you OK, thanks. But when that becomes every day, and they insist on sweeping the path to your car as well shouldnt you start to as ask yourself What the heck does this person want from me?
