PRAGER THE PIOUS STRIKES AGAIN

(h/t Rude Pundit)

For those of you who don't know him, he's a talk radio host who thinks the Old Testament was too easy on people.  Anyway, today he's found another grave threat to Western Civilization: school breakfasts.

Here are Prager's delusions about them:
First, the program was created to solve a problem that does not exist.

Second, it both enables and encourages irresponsible, uninterested, and incompetent parenting.

Third, even where decent parents are involved, free breakfasts at school weaken the parent-child bond.

And fourth, the free breakfast profoundly weakens young people’s character. 
Prager offers not one bit of empirical evidence to support any of these claims.
