time swallowing this. debra, what s so tough about this one? well, the tough thing is, kids are going hungry at school, so we don t have enough lean meats and proteins, we don t have enough great whole grapes, and we all know what happens when kids get hungry, they get grumpy and hard to be around. so i actually think feeding kids better meals, letting the cafeteria have a little bit more flexibility in what they re cooking, is going to make a huge difference. yeah, we don t want them to go hungry but we want them to eat what is available to them. yes. i also think that s very important that children have a lot of different choices. however, i don t think it s obama s the right of passage for him to say what they should and shouldn t be eating. it should all stem within the home, good eating, teaching your children how to eat good fruits and vegetables from the beginning, and then as we know
you re saying that drivers can t do anything that s unrelated to operating a motor vehicle. you can t have your granola bar, your doughnut, you can t have a sip of your coffee. it s crossing the line. i think it should be more specific. maybe not putting on makeup, not eating, not smoking. but it just seems to me you could extend it to, if you wanted, raise the volume or play with your radio a little bit. well, yeah. then that s getting kind of weird, right? that s why officers shouldn t have the discretion. the officers shouldn t have the discretion to say whatever i see you doing is draistracting you. i think the law needs to be specific in saying, look, these are the specific things you can t do. and if you are found doing them, can you get a ticket. but i don t think it s overreaching to say you shouldn t be eating. but what would draw the cop to pull you over if he is seeing the woman putting on the makeup? is that the same thing? it s discretionary. the way the bill

costs at mcdonald s tells us another story. and the university of kansas research assistant has done just that. he found that mcdonald s total payroll is about 17.1% of its revenue. so he found that if you double, if you double every salary of every worker at mcdonald s including ceo donald thompson, who makes almost $9 million a year. if you double all that, including that big $9 million salary, and assuming that mcdonald s then decided to pass on every penny of that cost to the consumer, which they wouldn t have to do. but let s just assume that is the way mcdonald s would do that kind of thing. the price of a big mac, and remember you shouldn t be eating big mac s, they re not good for you, but the price of the big mac would increase to $6.46, and that is if you double every salary.
