   School lunches and child nutrition are a no-brainer, or you'd think.   
   It's an investment into our country - every dollar in SNAP funding adds   
   $1.54 to the GDP, and every billion in SNAP benefits supports 14,000   
   jobs while contributing more to the GDP then we spend.   
      
   Not to mention the benefits to the country as a whole having children   
   well-nourished during their formative years and the effect on their   
   education.   
      
   Instead, we get to hear wealthy politicians blaming poor parents as an   
   excuse to cut funding. I guess an ignorant populace is easier to   
   manipulate - and someone has to do those jobs no one wants to do when we   
   stop all undocumented workers!
