States that participate in the federal program are required to cover half of the administrative costs, which would cost Nebraska an estimated $300,000. Advocates of the program note that the administrative cost is far outweighed by the $18 million benefit, which the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates would benefit 175,000 Nebraska children who might otherwise go hungry on some days during the summer.
Imagine being such a reprehensible monster that you’d let 175k children in your state starve rather than participate in a federal program that’d help feed them when school is out each summer. It’s unconscionable.
It’s unconscionable.
BUt… but… he doesn’t believe in welfare! how dare you intrude onto his lack of belief!

Remember, Republicans only care about fetuses. They don’t care about babies and kids.
“I don’t believe in welfare”
Feck off and stop accepting federal funding, you fucking welfare queen
Fucker believes in welfare when it’s called corn subsidies.
I think the best course of action would be to reframe their thinking, instead of allowing things to keep in being called subsidies, force them to try to clarify the difference between a subsidy and welfare. Ie, farming subsidy? You mean farming welfare. Banking subsidy? You mean banking welfare. Did you know that Boeing Corp has received $15 Billion in subsidies not paid back? You mean $15 Billion in welfare, they in fact, received nearly $75 Billion in welfare, most of that welfare being received since 2000, and of that ~$75 Billion in welfare received, they actually paid back ~$60 Billion. So they received $15 Billion dollars in welfare from the US taxpayers. They are by no means the sole corporate beneficiary of welfare from the taxpayers, just the first one I stumbled upon. Point being, force the language to reflect what they hate so their hypocrisy can be exposed and other people’s eyes can be opened. Most people don’t know exactly what a subsidy is, they think there is some sort of justification for it that makes it beyond criticizing, a subsidy is just welfare for corporations or farms to keep them in business, we want them in business, sure, but we also want kids to be able to eat over the summer, and if farms and Boeing and banks are deserving of welfare from the government, and hence from the US taxpayers, why aren’t kids?
But he’s okay with PPP loans being forgiven and also gets USDA subsidies for Pillen Family farms. Source: https://projects.propublica.org/coronavirus/bailouts/search?q=Pillen&v=1 Source:https://farm.ewg.org/persondetail.php?custnumber=A09760551
