      Right, because they dont… Flat tax could have been a thing, and people voted against it, because they wanted all the same “loopholes” for themselves when the realized what “fair” tax actually looks like.

    This should be a priority everywhere. I can afford to send my daughter with good food, but not everyone can, and just one hangry kid can derail the entire class. And who better to pay for it than people whose financial considerations never include their next meal? Proud of my New England neighbors.
