[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The vast majority of "free lunch" money comes from the USDA ag programs designed to pay off voting farmers; the surplus crops get turned into school breakfasts and lunches.[/quote] Taxpayer money. You and I are paying for this food that gets thrown out daily. [/quote] True. The (voting) farmers are getting the money regardless. That's who it's really for. The rest is just bookkeeping.[/quote] I work for a farmer lobbying group. Yes we support the existing / old school lunch program and it is an important buyer. But we aren’t the ones lobbying for free lunch/breakfast for all nor do I think most other ag associations are either. Not sure who is pushing so hard for keeping the expansion but it’s not the farm lobby. [/quote] wink-wink[/quote]
