I think I can explain this in a way that is palatable to conservatives.
Poor people have subsidized grocery money in the form of food stamps. They are being entrusted with that money, so they are also expected to follow guidelines and actually buy healthy food instead of beer and cigarettes. Sound right?
Children are also eating heavily subsidized lunches at school everyday. So if the government is paying to feed them, shouldn't the students also be required to eat food that follows standard nutrition guidelines?
Bottom line, don't complain about your freedom to eat junkfood if you want the government to subsidize your junkfood.
But hey, let's keep it in perspective, folks! I thought Romney and the GOP wanted this campaign to be about big issues and big ideas! Is that what they actually care about most these days?
