School lunches are U.S. national-security issue
-
Kasson Plummer on 10 Mar 16The claim is that school lunches are a security issue because 12% of the population that could sign up for the military are obese making the military smaller.

-
The military’s health system spends more than $1.5 billion annually treating obesity-related health problems and replacing troops discharged because they are unfit.
-
This is evidence because it clearly explains how much they spend on obese soldiers which is a ridiculous amount of money. Which makes it a security issue.

Students served healthier foods ate nearly 20 percent more of their entrees and 40 percent more of the vegetables they chose, according to a Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity study published in the journal Childhood Obesity. Which means they threw away less food. The study also showed that more than 20 percent more children chose fruit.
-
This is a reason because if the schools had that it would be a better future for the military and the kids.
