But, um, the first national free lunch programs were started in this country because when WWII started, the government found that the post-Great-Depression populace was so stunted from malnourishment that there was concern about recruiting enough eligible soldiers. So, does this mean Republicans no longer want a military? No more sending poor people to fight their wars?
I think it's more of that those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. AKA ignorance and lack of empathy.
Edit: "repeated" to "repeat it".

If that is the case, this is a very pacifist move by the republicans. Kudos! Finally someone looking out for the peoples interests instead of corporate/military complex.
Instead of a military they'll just have Russia annex us.
They're trying to get rid of the they/them army and replace them with... uhhh... IDK that's where my theory breaks down (probably because Republicans don't normally make sense)
