       👍🏿Whoever said "There's no such thing as a free lunch" is not a good person. Of course there is. All children should eat for free. The Swedes are wrong on this oneProviding free lunch for everyone will do more to reduce the so called "racial achievement gap" than many school programs.https://www.npr.org/2022/11/09/1134832752/colorado-free-school-lunch-results-measure-midtermsNot all Black kids are poor, but in the US, many are. "School lunch debt" is a disgusting term that shouldn't exist.

       @icedquinn@blob.cat @mekkaokereke@mastodon.cloud True but free lunches are good.We can criticize the resulting quality of those free lunches though.
