My memories were of eating breakfast at home, going to school with money to buy lunch or bringing my own lunch. My children did the same thing. If I ever found myself without money, I might starve but they would eat and wouldn't be at the mercy of a control freak like Michelle Obama.
What ever happened to feeding your own children anyway?
Please don't say the people are too poor, I think some may be but others are just to lazy.
Tobacco contains nicotine, an addictive substance. A very difficult one to kick permanently.
Difficult does not equal impossible.
Many people have quit permanently.
For example, I quit 26 years ago. I know lots of other people who have also quit.

so obummer signs a bill that makes government more intrusive on the people, takes away repsonsibility of the people, and will do nothing for the heath of children, all at taxpayer expense
Yeah I do think its okay to offer junk food everywhere??
I think it's OKAY to offer junk food sometimes, at some places, too. But there is no good reason to offer it at schools and it sure as heck isn't an infringement on parential control if it's NOT offered somewhere.
Liberals loathe personal responsibility and have no problem picking taxpayer pockets to see their Utopian vision of big government control realized.
Keep em down, keep em enabled and keep em Democrats.
If it was up to you, little kids would probably still be sweat-shopping it up at factories, like they did in the early 1900s. Ah, those were the good old days; it taught them good "personal responsibility".

Junk food is not offered at schools. School lunches have always been under the eye of the USDA.

Using his premise, why should the government make any laws at all. Why make it illegal for pedophiles to be kept a certain distance away from schools? It should be the parents' responsibility to ensure that their child's safety is taken care of. These people are so blinded by their partisan bs, that they actually stop making any sense

Right. I imagine most parents would rank their child eating a chocolate chip cookie right up there with having their child molested/killed by a Pedophile.
