Two Star Tribune readers from St. Louis Park (a suburb of Minneapolis) appear to have simultaneously realized that cutting school lunch programs will hurt children whose parents can't afford to pack a lunch for them. While I'm always glad to see people begin to think critically about government, especially where taxation is concerned, I had to smile at the gentleman who wrote, "[w]hen the economy turns sour, you do not batter those unable to weather the storm."

Yes, we usually do. I tend to rather cynically call it "the American way." But maybe, if the 'burbs are coming around, one of these days I'll have to stop. Here's hoping.
