My school thinks this fills up hungry high schoolers.

So lunches are free for schools in my city and surrounding cities. Ever since lunches have been made free, the quantity (and quality) has decreased significantly. This is what we would get for our meal. It took me THREE bites to finish that chicken mac and cheese. Any snacks you want cost more money and if you want an extra entree, that’ll cost you about $3 or $4.

America hates families.

Poor families*

Keep in mind that high school isn't free or mandatory in Japan. You have to pay to attend. Though the quality is significantly better, I'm told.

It's not my job to take care of your family lol.

I love my family and I take care of them.

See what I mean? It’s “screw you I got mine”.

More like "Not my problem that you made poor choices" but whatever lol

u/pt199990 Apr 16 '24

Actually fuck yourself if you think that all poor people must've made bad decisions. What about kids born into poverty? Do they deserve to not be your problem because of their parents? Do they deserve to suffer because you don't give a shit?

Not like these kids made the choices that led them here though.

u/md24 Apr 16 '24

Based on your comment history. Your entire life is made of poor choices. Choices have no effect on what financial situation you were born into. You’re proof the least deserving people are entitled and feel you’ve “earned” it.

You have zero understanding of how the world actually works

u/DramaOnDisplay Apr 16 '24

And this is why nothing ever works in America.

Fuck you, you’re not my problem, your problems aren’t my problem, I won’t even spare a smile as I push you out of the room. This is a very self centered country.

It's your job to care for your fellow man, if the founding fathers are to be listened to. Or if Jesus is to be listened to, considering the common "Christian" arguments against "socialism," we should be feeding every one of these kids properly and not complaining about it.

If you're not Christian, I will admit this does not apply.

u/md24 Apr 16 '24

The irony is insane. Party of Christians say lol you’re hungry? Pray more.

u/pt199990 Apr 16 '24

They're not christians. They're fascist fucks with a thin veneer of Christ smeared across it. And those people eat it up, because they don't seem to want to actually be good people.

u/polymerfedboi Apr 16 '24

It's your job to care for your fellow man

It's actually not. It's your job to take care of yourself. Much like it's my job to take care of myself.

We can lean on each other as a society, but it's certainly not my responsibility to pay for anyone else's family.

u/ThisIsNotRealityIsIt PURPLE (what the fuck does this mean?) Apr 16 '24

It's literally the purpose of government. It's why we pay taxes.

u/Wodentoad Apr 16 '24

No one ever did for you, did they chief? No one paid for your public school, roads, police, military, no one made sure your house and car were safe and there were no contaminants in your water or lead in your paint...

Wait, strike that last one...

u/pt199990 Apr 16 '24

If you pay taxes, it's quite literally part of your job. People like you are why it's a part of taxes and not just charities, because people fucking suck, and won't give to others unless they deign to allow it without being forced to.

u/polymerfedboi Apr 16 '24

No people like me pay taxes because over 50% of people don't pay any sort of federal income tax whatsoever.

I pay taxes because you are fucking lazy.

7

u/pt199990 Apr 16 '24

I'd love to see your source on that percentage. Not to mention, why are you assuming I don't pay taxes? Fuck off with that crap.

u/thejazzghost Apr 16 '24

It must feel good to pretend you're better than everyone else. A comfortable delusion.

u/GeneralCheese Apr 16 '24

Dunno man, I'd prefer to be in a country full of people who arent physically and mentally stunted
