Re: Ethical Question - eating subsidized meals?
I don't think they should base it on the fact that the pre-baby boomers did alot for this country so they feel deserving of a $1.50 meal. They should base it on "need".
But like another poster said alot of seniors skip eating & if it's in a social-like setting in a way it wouldn't hurt because there are alot of shut-in's who may not have the opportunity to get out there & socialize.
My mom qualifies for such a program in her apt building. She also likes it because it gets her out of her apt for a bit & she can gossip with the neighbors ect.
