I thought Liberals were all for equality?? 

If it was something you needed to feed your family, don't even act like you'd give up your share to others.

But that was the bill (improving access for families in need) that sailed through with unanimous consent in the Senate. So it seems not even republicans share your specific concerns (which, imho, are a bit cruel to the children of poor families, that are not to blame for the amount of taxes their parents pay). What actually met fierce republican opposition in the house (and probably the senate) was the additional 28 million in emergency funding. Thought for ensuring the quality of foreign products and the like.
