Nice! Some kids are born into families that cant provide them a decent meal before school.

And I promise you a hungry/malnourished child is going to have a very hard time doing well in school.

The kids will have to wait in line longer to get their food! Better to starve then wait a few minutes for their free food!

It is cool that any kid can get breakfast or lunch. Some kids are always hungry anyway. Some run late. Some forget.

Coolest is now California spends its money on meals instead of spending the money on regulating who can eat the meals.

Also never forget that people against socialization often unwittingly spread untrue myths. I havent looked at food distribution data specifically but take universal healthcare for example you always hear them prattling on about wait times being super long with universal coverage but its simply untrue, the facts dont back that claim up.

https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/healthcare/reports/2019/10/18/475908/truth-wait-times-universal-coverage-systems/

Now maybe Question is right with his flippant a la carte remark, Im just saying Id like to see some sources before accepting it as true.

Back in my school, rich kids go to the a la carte line, and poor kids go to the regular line that's eligible for free lunches. There was a stigma for eating at the poor line so kids tried to not eat there.

The "stock" school lunch is already seen as for "the poors" and will become even more so somehow when it's free for everyone.

Again, more children being fed for free isnt a bad thing. Stop trying so hard. You can drop your political views for a moment to not look like an idiot all the time.

I dont even get how people see things so badly. I have a pretty negative and nihilistic worldview and even I cant find a way to spin kids getting fed as a bad thing lol

It's not, but kids can be assholes over anything.
Let's see how it plays out. It's almost certainly going to be stock lunch plus a la carte for the kids who used to pay for the regular lunch, with the previous "free lunch" crowd knocked even lower in the schoolyard hierarchy.

There's no way the schools will abandon the easy money of the a la carte line, unless forced to do so.

Most title 1 schools around the nation have free breakfast/lunch programs. Cool that the whole state is doing it. My only gripe (I teach in a title 1 district) is the food is usually disgusting. Something is better than nothing, but many of my kids will opt to skip lunch instead of eating the freebies.

Really, school lunch should have become "free" the exact moment school started becoming compulsory, back in the 1850s.

This is where the "good intentions" won't work. Now all we've got is more kids with stray pocket-money for the chips and ice cream around the corner from the tray line.

We don't sell that crap in our school so really it's just hungry kids with headaches. Don't get me wrong there are kids who eat it because they need something, but a lot of kids think it's just gross food and they aren't wrong. What we really need is to do is improve the quality. Aramark should be catching shit for the products they put out.

When I was a kid and lived in Cali for a few years, we had to bring some orange/yellow date chart that had a date you would rip off, and give it to the vendors at school to eat your free meal for the day.

So embarrassing. Glad that shits over with.

If you're a crook, we don't want you. Stay in the South or Midwest where murder rates are highest.

If you're criticizing CA's gun laws, blame it on Reagan who implemented the most restrictive laws in the land (with NRA support) because black people were freely exercising their 2nd amendment rights in the 1960s.

Only one person heres said that and thats my marine buddy with like 10 guns whos never had to defend himself. Can you cite whatever story led you to believe you cant defend yourself in any situation you should be able to?

Like the time in school when we got free lunch
And the cool kids beat us up (reduced lunch)
And the rich kids had convertibles
And we had to ride the bus (55)
Like the time we made the baseball team
But they still laughed at us (you still suck)
Like the time that girl broke up with me
'Cause I wasn't cool enough
Trick.
