      When you’re struggling to feed your kids, yeah, mine is on the list. That doesn’t mean I don’t help other people but our government taxes the struggling and literally sets cash on fire as a thank you.

        Reduction in access to abortion and contraceptives will only increase the number of people in this country struggling to feed kids. We could also talk about school lunch programs and support services in general.

          I constantly bring up school lunch programs but I get downvoted on sites like this because I choose unpopular context. For example, Biden spent money on something, I say - he could have funded school lunches, but instead lunch ladies get to go back to collecting food debt.
