How The Grinch Stole Christmas by Grumpy Old Teacher

700,000 people across the nation are going to lose their SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits as a new federal rule goes into effect.

In Florida, that would mean that 200,000 children will lose their free school lunch.

You’re a mean one, Mr. Trump! The song parody is writing itself in Grumpy Old Teacher’s mind even as he writes these words.

But in these DeVosian days of American public schools, Scrooge is in charge, the pre-ghost Scrooge, and don’t put another coal on the fire, Bob Cratchit!

If they can’t pay, let ’em go hungry. That’ll teach ’em.

You’re a mean one, Mr. Trump!

Look at him loot the icebox.

Why is it that lunch-shaming stories never shame those who take lunch out of the hands and mouths of children?

Who is that cold-hearted? What misanthropist could do that?

Previously, we have read the occasional story of a lunch debt problem gone bad. But this takes the cake–literally.
