Let’s get this straight from the beginning. This is all Michelle Obama. If you don’t think she has the full weight of the government behind her, you must be living in a cave somewhere.
This story first hit the news on Tuesday and I didn’t really get the chance to post about it since my items appear in the morning and I take Wednesdays (yesterday) off. But I’m still sure there are a number of you that didn’t catch this item.
In some schools there are now “government lunchbox inspectors.” Because you’re too stupid to fix your child’s lunch, the government needs to step in to make sure you are following Comrade Michelle’s guidelines. It’s just a miracle the American society survived the pre-Obama years, isn’t it? We’re all just schmucks compared to them as you can plainly see by the wonderful state of the country and the booming economy.
A mother in Hoke County complains her daughter was forced to eat a school lunch because a government inspector determined her home-made lunch did not meet nutrition requirements. In fact, all of the students in the NC Pre-K program classroom at West Hoke Elementary School in Raeford had to accept a school lunch in addition to their lunches brought from home.
NC Pre-K (before this year known as More at Four) is a state-funded education program designed to “enhance school readiness” for four year-olds.
The mother, who doesn’t wish to be identified at this time, says she made her daughter a lunch that contained a turkey and cheese sandwich, a banana, apple juice and potato chips. A state inspector assessing the pre-K program at the school said the girl also needed a vegetable, so the inspector ordered a full school lunch tray for her. While the four-year-old was still allowed to eat her home lunch, the girl was forced to take a helping of chicken nuggets, milk, a fruit and a vegetable to supplement her sack lunch.
The mother says the girl was so intimidated by the inspection process that she was too scared to eat all of her homemade lunch. The girl ate only the chicken nuggets provided to her by the school, so she still didn’t eat a vegetable.
How much is enough? Everybody seems so complacent, willing to accept and embrace the tyranny, and this is tyranny, while I’m ready for overthrow. This has to stop, this is not the United States of America anymore. Who is willing to accept government lunchbox inspectors/food police?
Ronald Reagan once said, and I’m paraphrasing, “If no one among us is capable of running their own lives, then who among us is capable of running someone else’s?”
Obama wasn’t kidding when he said he wanted to “fundamentally transform America.” We are becoming just another failed police state socialist country, even though we have all bore witness to the fact that socialism is a complete failure 100% of the time. That is an absolute truth.
And what’s this crap about school for 4 year-olds? How about this, K-12, period. Like when I was a kid and you actually learned things that mattered back when schools were free of government control (pre-U.S. Dept. of Education). You don’t need all of this early childhood politically correct bullshit. We got along just fine before all that crap became implemented.
