Which is now literally false yet the recommended fats remained the same...

2018-08-18 20:28:18 UTC  

And carbs are recommended at high amounts even though it's the only optional macronutrient

2018-08-18 20:28:22 UTC  

fucking insane innit

2018-08-18 20:29:15 UTC  

It is... but i am so jaded now with the state of western nations that I dont really have any expectations of them doing a good job in anything

2018-08-18 20:30:32 UTC  

One of the funnier hypocrisies of american conservatives however is wanting mandatory public education

2018-08-18 20:30:41 UTC  

however not giving school lunches a fairly small expenditure

2018-08-18 20:30:51 UTC  

Just force a kid to go somewhere 8 hours a day and not feed them

2018-08-18 20:30:51 UTC  

I mean where do you even begin to start sorting the issues, it will take decades to make any positive effect and then demographics will turn everything to shit anyway

2018-08-18 20:31:02 UTC  

I don't know why republicans do this honestly

2018-08-18 20:31:04 UTC  

do american conservatives want mandatory public education?

2018-08-18 20:31:10 UTC  

what about school choice?

2018-08-18 20:31:14 UTC  

Ok

2018-08-18 20:31:20 UTC  

You are forced to go somewhere from 5-18

2018-08-18 20:31:27 UTC  

Could be private or home

2018-08-18 20:31:32 UTC  

but regardless, the default is public education

2018-08-18 20:31:42 UTC  

and republicans don't want free school lunches, a fairly small expenditure

2018-08-18 20:31:48 UTC  

yeah i see your point now

2018-08-18 20:31:55 UTC  

You should not be able to force someone to go somewhere

2018-08-18 20:31:58 UTC  

and then not provide for them

2018-08-18 20:31:59 UTC  

imo

2018-08-18 20:32:21 UTC  

it is a bit fucked up, but i guess the logic is that you have to eat anyway, so eat at the school

2018-08-18 20:32:36 UTC  

Well the school should pay for it

2018-08-18 20:32:40 UTC  

if they're gonna force you to be there

2018-08-18 20:32:54 UTC  

It's a losing issue

2018-08-18 20:33:08 UTC  

Like how are you going to morally justify forcing a 5-18 to go somewhere for 8 hours and not feed them?

2018-08-18 20:33:29 UTC  

It's just an autistic stand against public spending

2018-08-18 20:33:38 UTC  

What if the kid decides to get extra food?

2018-08-18 20:33:40 UTC  

Imagine if you joined the army got deployed then they told you to get your own food on the battlefield

2018-08-18 20:33:59 UTC  

@Bagrat pretty much, and the army would be more justified in telling you to fuck off and die because you signed up

2018-08-18 20:34:06 UTC  

Kids never signed up for mandatory education

2018-08-18 20:34:34 UTC  

@Deleted User just limit to like 1200 kcal or something

2018-08-18 20:35:05 UTC  

I do believe in mandatory education but there does need to be some reform including the nutritional benefit of school lunches

2018-08-18 20:35:22 UTC  

I don't think education should be mandatory

2018-08-18 20:35:28 UTC  

Past the 6th grade level

2018-08-18 20:35:35 UTC  

to a certain extent no

2018-08-18 20:35:42 UTC  

4 hours a day is enough

2018-08-18 20:35:52 UTC  

If you really focus on important subjects

2018-08-18 20:36:46 UTC  

I prefer the German system in which at a certain point the school splits into 2 branches offering students the choice of pursuing practical workforce careers or greater educational pursuits

2018-08-18 20:36:53 UTC  

Yeah I've referenced that too

2018-08-18 20:37:05 UTC  

Privatize education

2018-08-18 20:37:09 UTC  

We have a massive issue with progressive credentialism
