I always fine that free meal part strange. I want to control what my kids eat and not rely on the school.

Thankfully Canada doesn’t have this expectation of free school meals… and everything works fine

LOL. The Canadian who gets government funded health care for all is being persnickety about hungry children getting government funded lunch in another country.
Welcome to the world we live in. I like focusing on something other than the exception to the rule.

I was just pointing out that this is the reason tons of people in the US don’t want universal health care. They don’t want the government deciding what health care they receive, just like you don’t want them deciding what your children eat. And they don’t want their taxes paying for something that someone else receives.

You’re both being… short sighted, shall we say.

But… Free school lunches benefit the majority in a very similar way that universal healthcare does. By your own logic you should be rioting for free school lunches. What on earth are you on about?
