Guess which party he's in.

Because kids learn so well when they’re hungry.
Ugh. How does this make sense?
Well the school lunch is shit anyways, so is this really a bad thing? I mean it doesn't make sense in the long run, don't get me wrong. But look at the goddamn lunch shown in the image: chicken nuggets, a moist waffle with sugary syrup and fries that mimic the children of any age? Fuck that.
he might be on to something look at that poor excuse for a lunch, all Joking aside. this is the Wrong approach Kids need to eat and no that cant concentrate when Hungry the guy is an asshat
If the ones doing poorly die from malnutrition, the schools' aggregate numbers will improve. Before Republicans were for "trickle down" and ketchup as a vegetable. Now, they're for completely turning off the tap and slow euthanasia by starvation for the poor. Welcome to Drumpf's America.
Let's pray it doesn't get to that, children are our future, perhaps it's time to change some of the teaching methods
wow
Makes so much sense. Kids are known to foucus and perform well academically when starvation kicks in
There's no connection between being a self-proclaimed conservative and cutting funding. Former President Obama did something very similar to it and he was a Democrat.
Solution: Home school your child and feed them when and what you want.

+Lizbeth Alvarado its better than the NOTHING that some poor children eat outside of school.

You can't teach kids that way… By starving them…..it turns them. You can't expect for them to improve on in something .and do better like that when your taking away their "nutrient" that keep their brains running& function ……"that's just bad form…… Need another approach. There no solution there
Just shut down Snapchat and Instagram and they'll actually learn.
Maybe a good place to start mam…..
+Lizbeth Alvarado though the thing with school lunch is that for some kids the only meal they get is the one they get at school. It may be shit but some live off of it.
+Melissa Walsh To those greedy bastards, morals be damned, if the money goes in their pocket EVERYTHING starts to make sense.
+Lizbeth Alvarado That "shitty" lunch could potentially be the only thing a kid is able to eat in a day. Especially in impoverished areas.
+Zaire That's not a solution if the person can barely feed their kid(s) at all already.

+Lizbeth Alvarado I'm sure you went to school. and im sure you can find better language. this kind of language is totally unacceptable. Maybe you need to go back to school to learn how to communicate

The beatings will continue until morale improves!
+LJastar "Something like it." Yes? What was that? Tell me specifically about President Obama's initiative to cut off school funding for meals for poor kids if school performance didn't improve.
starve the kids, that will help them better, how fucking stupid are these people
+Minty Flan of 2002 +ProGamer1515 "I mean it doesn't make sense in the long run, don't get me wrong." Was that not enough?
Another idiot politician idea
+Daryl Duplisea Not just any random idiot politician.
But then, why not cutting funding from Arkansas legislators who's schools do not perform well?
+Zaire Well, there's an idea – NOT. Most parents have neither the time nor the education and ability to properly teach their children!
+Dave Hill His, well actually, it was Mrs. Obama's idea, was to cut funding and move the food towards healthier solutions to encourage weightloss. It didn't help though.
+LJastar While it was an Obama era move to make school food healthier, I don't believe it involved intentional or significant funding cuts.
+LJastar You have a source for that?
+Peter Lemken No, I speak from common knowledge of the American school system. If you were actively going to school then you would've seen this all over media and such.
You don't have a source then. It's blabla without any foundation. Alternative Facts, in other words.
