Hell, half the country doesn't want kids to have food when they go to school.
This is actually a similar deal that's been misrepresented to get the sympathy of left wing voters.
Poor kids already get food.
This push is aimed at giving kids whose families make too much to qualify for free food, free food. It's another handout to rich people.
I don't care if rich kids end up getting food even if they don't need it. If the means testing means even one kid who needs the food doesn't get it then I say scrap the means testing altogether.
I'd support a study to see if that's happening to any degree, and if it is, then yes, that sounds fair. Otherwise, no, schools need that money for much better things, like afterschool programs for at risk youth. And paying teachers.
