To the Readers' Forum:
In response to Mr. Gaczewski's article in The Post-Journal on Saturday, Sept. 8, our country is in deep financial trouble and to correct it, every government organization has got to cut corners severely!
Can you explain why all the students in six of the Jamestown Schools have to be given free breakfasts and lunches? Why not supper also? Shouldn't the parents shoulder some of the responsibility for raising and feeding their own children? All of the parents aren't destitute. Some can afford to feed their children. A tuna or bologna sandwich and a drink aren't that expensive. The ones who really need it should get it.
In your article, you failed to mention the cost to Uncle Sam.
