Republicans Declare Banning Universal Free School Meals a 2024 Priority
As states across the country move to make sure students are well fed, Republicans have announced their intention to fight back.

I find it hard to believe this is actually a popular idea among their base, along with cutting social security. But maybe I am naive. I know GOP voters like cruelty, but not when it affects them personally
That's the thing - they don't see it that way. Their voters think that it won't affect them because they're not abusing the system, but it'll be a good thing to give freeloaders the boot. Their cognitive dissonance doesn't let them realize that they are also part of the group that will be affected.
You see it am the time. They hold two contrary beliefs with no problem arguing for both.
Continuing to prove that the cruelty is the point.
They are so cartoonishly evil. It’s just wild to me that these people are in actual power. Jesus.
Absolute ghouls.
They are pro-forced birth, not "pro-life."
I most likely see them as pro-suffering looking closely at the topics they target women, LGBTQ, veterans, minorities, children, poor people. Is this some kind of fetish

Freedom is when no food
North Korea style freedom is best freedom. Dear Leaders love! ❤️
I'll bet if they could figure out how to make money from it they would be fine with it.
I mean, don't they already? Whoever has the contract for supplying the food to the schools is making bank, especially if they can keep the politicians on their side.
I said this on the place that won't be named, and got downvoted. Poor dumb people are FAR easier to control/exploit than well educated people who have a financial safety net (be it private or social).

I know plenty of people who are constantly hurt financially by republican policies and still spout off gop talking points and vote along party lines. It blows my mind. Kinda like when I was a career firefighter and would sit at the dinner table in the firehouse and listen to guys who railed against taxes and "the government" when their income depended on taxes and "the government". I should have seen back then that you can't reason with people who are 100% bought in with the propaganda. When I'd ask them what they will do for a living if all taxes were abolished the just blew it off.
To all you folks complaining about how such a policy would make the very poorest children not get anything to eat during a time of especially great hardship. Yes I know some kids will literally starve because of this, but have you for even a second considered thinking about things from a billionaire’s perspective and what they have to go through? Just for once? Yeah, I didn’t think so.
All the extra money going to the poors wasted when it could be going into MY pockets. They should work a side gig on the weekend to get the money for lunch! In the end, it will teach them about economics at a young age.
had me in the first half, ngl
Very disgusting.
Do they still pretend they are Christians or?
I read once that people vote against their own self interest because they don't want to benefit someone outside of their tribe.
