#1 I cannot figure out for the life of me why states give money to the Feds in one form or another just so 75% of the money can be returned later.

#2 Simple, gorb. It's like how you make a rope longer by cutting some off one end and tying it on the other. Or Daylight Savings Time.

#5 Not sure how they calculated that. They measured what went down the disposal? Or $300 grand was left on the shelves because no one would eat it?

Not that I doubt Moochelle's ditats are unwelcome, BTW.

#6 I've got a mind to put "healthy" in scare quotes.

We've seen from the CDCs salt debacle (low salt is bad for you, high salt is merely excreted) that the government and healthy make and oxymoron.

#7 Cancelled subscriptions Bobby. I have a lunch box ready for my daughter.

Lower calorie intake to reduce energy.
Lower salt so sweating is not effective during exercise.
Exercise such as running is not allowed.
Conforming corriculum contrary to belief system.
Unwanted sexual education.
If this was Guantanamo, there would be outrage.

Some Kansas kids

When I was a young wrestler, I could eat 2 double whoppers with cheese and be hungry by 4.

#8 States give and Feds give back is a way to launder how much went where.
