NY giving away an additional meal
PB: this is problematic and further leads us down a slippery slope.
mwade: BUT WHAAAAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN!
PB: there has to be a happy medium. there has to be a solution we can discuss that feeds needy children, but is fair for all involved (including tax paying parents not suckling on the government tit). Perhaps there should be consequences for parents not feeding their children.
mwade: plugs ears. “Lalalalalalala” BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN. The hungry, starving, dying children. You MONSTERS.
PB: what’s your solution then mwade?
mwade: Spend more!!!!!! Slopes aren’t slippery! :insert more emotional manipulation:
Rinse. Repeat. Rinse. Repeat.
…that was easy.

You believe I'm morally responsible for the children in my school district but you aren't morally responsible for kids one block outside of your school district?
The problem with the nonstop slippery slopes like this one is they don't hold any water when you realize you're not even approaching them from an intellectually honest position.
We're not even talking about the really expesnive stuff (housing, healthcare) and you're using this same tired shite to justify not supporting this (relatively) miniscule amount of support for innocent kids.

It's a very simple question / concept:
WHO is responsible for WHAT?
I want your answer to that in black and white.

It's telling you left out the word "relatively" as if it's insignifcant to the context of school lunches. People care how much things will cost them and weigh that accordingly into their decisions. Believe it or not, you do it too!
But I understand that when you only have slippery slopes to fall back on, there's no way you can ackowledge that.

it’s telling that you try shoehorn in more taxpayer funded programs by using terms like, “relatively” and playing the emotional manipulation card.
Then you have the gaul to keep throwing the slippery slope card in our face, while continuing to advocate for more and more social safety net programs.
People aren't getting off these programs. People aren’t turning them down. No, they continue to ask for more and you continue to manipulate taxpayers for more and to spread it out further. And a very very small percentage of these people aren’t capable of earning and providing for THEIR CHILDREN.
Never have you bothered to ask any logical questions, such as: Where are these starving children? Are there parents already receiving SNAP/EBT? Nor are you offering solutions, such as: let’s take all illegal immigrants off social safety net programs. Kick off fake/dead/scam Social Security recipients. Then we could feed every kid in America 3 times a day.
Nope. You have 2 rebuttals:
1) emotional manipulation (over a problem that isn’t reality)
2) Advocate for more, “it’s relatively” inexpensive.
Then you get defensive and hide from people reply from you. It’s truly impressive how fricking pathetic of a man you are.

Baton Rouge Public Schools have had this for at least the 10 years my daughter has been in the system (she brings her lunch and won't eat the school food). It's easier to give it free for everybody rather than to try to charge the small percentage of students who don't qualify for free food at this point in BR.
In lots of other school systems serving affluent communities, they just do it because they can within their budget.

Calm down, you’re gonna be fine! Nobody is getting defensive, you don’t have to either.
How is the sticker price emotional manipulation? It’s a number.
Also where did I advocate for “more and more” this is a thread about school lunches in the state of New York. You’re the one obsessed with defining it as “more and more” (there’s that pesky slope again!)

because it’s an extremely logical next step, that only a moron would not foresee. it’s not like we don’t have a half a century of data to use to make this conclusion. derp.
how’s that?

no doubt. I earn and am not dependent on a social safety net to wipe my own arse.

What is the cost of teaching generations of citizens that they should rely on the government for all their basic needs?

I think this is normal now, they do it here locally.

His previous response to that was "food doesn't cost that much money" completely ignoring the point, while silently acknowledging that he doesn't have a good answer and we should all just shut up because "it's not THAT MUCH money".
