Yeah, even I have to agree. I would have said it was a good opportunity for parent education, except I looked at what they fed the child...

Chicken nuggets????

Where exactly on a chicken can one find a nugget? And then they are battered in extra bread? Nope... If they are going to insist a child needs to make healthy food choices, they need to do the same.

I think part of the problem is politics stepped in to decide what is healthy and what is not. It's not the place of politics to decide what is good for your body and what is not. It's up to the health professionals to come up with guidelines. Policy should be drafted based on the recommendations of the nutritionist professionals, not the recommendations of lobbyist.

Not true, however, your post is pretty much teatard.

Yup, if nearly 50 million people on food stamps and 15.1% of the country unemployed or underemployed doesn't sound down to you no one can force you to see otherwise. Throw in our poverty rate, gas prices and record length of unemployment and things are all unicorns and rainbows.

The problem with capitalism is that someone goes hungry.

No, the problem with capitalism is that someone is nice and full, while everyone else goes hungry.

15.1%? Don't look like that, unemployment feel like 8% now.

I think that you may need move to South Dakota so you will get a job in no time.

Capitalism afford others the chance to work and be able to have a home and feed their families.

Yes, it's wonderful how generous they are with the Asians and South Americans.

Note what I said in my post....

Quote:

15.1% of the country unemployed or underemployed

Quote:

U-6 — This is the catch-all of the lot. It includes all of the above groups — total unemployed, discouraged workers and the marginally attached — plus part-time workers who say they would like to be working more, but for economic reasons could only find part-time work. It was 15.1 percent in January.

That's better with government statistic, however you are looking for highest unemployment to make Obama looks bad.

It isn't Obama's fault.

headdesk? lol, this forum isn't big deal to you so no need to be frustrated.

It's the same statistic. It is the U-6 statistic...... I am looking at the number of people who are unemployed and underemployed as I said posts ago. It's pretty sad, and yes, it is Obama's fault. Even Biden said this can no longer be blamed on Bush.

In bold, I disagree with you.

Well, I prefer to use official unemployment rate so it is 8.3% now, nothing is worse than Great Depression.
