Fox News expose: lunch programs might be feeding more than poor kids

Check it out here.

Jon Coupal of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association figures there's a good chance not all the tykes bellying up to the free lunch buffet counter are legit poor.

3,000,000 children visit 30,000 sites every day to score a free lunch. No means testing, no screening, no nothing. Who even knows how many not-so-poor kids are sneaking in there to get a free baloney sandwich on Uncle Sam's tab?

Hey Jon, leave it alone. Ya, you're right, there's always somebody in any crowd keen for a free lunch, but look at it this way.

What it's going to cost you to do means testing on 3,000,000 kids is going to be many times more than the value of a few baloney sandwiches going to the undeserving.

Let it go...
