Big Government: Now that student athletes are rising up to protest rabbity little one-size-fits-all lunches prescribed by the federal government, the question must be asked: Just what are the feds doing with this much power?

 

The law of unintended consequences was out in full force with the Obama administration's "Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010," a law championed by first lady Michelle Obama and passed by Congress, supposedly to combat childhood obesity.

 

But instead of lowering obesity rates, the initiative has students across the country rebelling.

All the sports kids at my son's school are having to bring lots of extra food now. Most of the kids still want the school lunch just say it is not enough.
