      I’d pay more in taxes to make sure NO ONE starved, had a roof over their head, had basic needs of life met. Sign me up today. It doesn’t have to be a kid, they don’t have to be a citizen of this country, they could be locked up in prison for life, they still deserve the minimum requirements of life met

      I don’t have any kids and I would gladly pay more in taxes if it means they don’t have to go hungry. Free breakfast and lunch for public school children. I’d love to see a poll of people who would say “nope, let them starve.” I just don’t think it’s a losing issue even in deep red counties. But maybe I’m wrong and I’m underestimating the right’s penchant for misery

      It’s so fucked up. Some schools have even refused to let third parties step in to pay off lunch debts for students. The cruelty is the point.
