This country really needs to get a grip with it's current health care crisis and start mandating healthy school lunches that actually make a significant difference in our childrens lives rather than just putting some whole wheat breadcrumbs on Cafeteria Mcnuggets and a bit of soy in the Mcribs or burgers. These children are our future generation and their productivity is reduced if they become unhealthy adults thus potentially weakening the US economy. How come European countries are surpassing us on healthcare? Maybe because they are thinking proactively and preventatively rather than serving the short term money God.
