  7. Too many different races and cultures in a classroom. Each group feels biased against them and each group has a different agenda.

  10. This video highlights teaching the children at an early age about cleaning, clearing the dishes and sweeping the floors. Most people take the trash home with them and dispose of it there or find a conbini and use their trashcan.

  11. They know it's more than feeding the kids stomach. Everything is a teachable moment.

  14. Americans are lazy. It takes time and effort to think up healthy and different meals. Farmers just want their money, they care about educating children, (that's the schools job). It's cheaper and easier to order pounds of frozen hamburger patties and premade frozen pizzas to cook and serve. The government will always choose the cheapest and the least amount of effort to accomplish a program.
