Providing summer food stamps for kids who are eligible for free or reduced lunch and whose parents don’t receive food stamps doesn’t handcuff anyone.
Where are the program requirements? I didn’t see anything that this program was for kids whose parents didn’t get food stamps.

Take care of your own damn kids. Either that or keep your legs closed tight!
We don’t need more breeding of government boob suckers. Sorry not sorry!

If true then every student in that school gets this money. It's absurd.
The money is probably better spent by giving it “Ukraine” aka government defense contractors.
Or do you expect to get a special tax refund check because Louisiana refused this assistance?

That’s basically what it seems like.
and I bet the most vocally opposed to feeding kids during the summer profess to be Christians too.

She has no clue the current situation is caused by continually removing responsibility for raising children from parents and shifting to community.
Which is what "it takes a village" ends up being: dependency on government programs through conditioning to accept that as the norm instead of a "last resort" situation.

If people actually gave a shite about each other, there wouldn’t be a need for these programs.

1) I do not support giving Ukraine anything and wish we didn't have any overseas spending.
2) My state does this program and trust me I know infinitely more about it than you do by nature of my job. It's ridiculous.
3) I personally know people who make >$100k a year whose child receives this simply because they attend a school in which 25% of students are on free/reduced lunch.

Parents are responsible for feeding their children, not the government.

There's a vast gulf of difference between people willingly giving to others or charitable organizations versus the government forcibly taking money from taxpayers then putting that toward programs which do more to perpetuate poverty than resolve it.
You still haven't explained why you are complaining about the State not offering food programs to these kids if you don't believe it's the government's responsibility.

If you have kids, its your responsibility to feed it. You wont stop burning your hand on the hot stove if you dont feel pain first
Posted on 1/12/24 at 12:11 pm to 4cubbies
Yes.

So?
We got one of these cards last summer for our son who had just finished kindergarten. Even though it would have been very useful, we didn’t use it. I have a feeling there are plenty of other families who didn’t use theirs either.

I would further add that since this isn't technically considered a benefit program it doesn't have the same anti-fraud rules that SNAP does. Unlike SNAP these benefits can be given away, sold, used for another person other than the child. It has no safeguards at all.
Summer EBT (previously Pandemic EBT) is a horrible, horrible program that never should have existed to begin with.

You are talking to people who pay a shite ton in taxes, give to church and give to charities.
What’s wrong with you?

The job of the government is to micro-manage mothers in the name of being “pro-life” but the government can’t provide food for kids in the name of being pro-life?
We expect mothers to carry and birth their children. We also expect mothers to feed their children.
That may seem like too high a burden from your point of view. But I find it a ridiculous point.

You said it was for kids who were on reduced lunch who didn't receive SNAP. Doesn't seem that way now does it.

Trying to equate abortion with a free food giveaway program is silly.
