PIZZA IS NOT A VEGETABLE

So, the latest news in politics is that congress is trying to pass legislation that pizza is a vegetable and counter Obama's legislation in trying to make school cafeteria food healthier. The sad truth is that childhood obesity has tripled in the past 3 decades and I'm sure some of it is tributed to kids counting the tomato paste on thier pizza as a healthy food choice. Obama's legislation was trying to benefit  youth in our society by giving kids at least one nutritional meal a day. So how and more importantly why is congress (the GOP) trying to investigate the definition of a vegetable and include pizza in that category? Corporations. Corporations. Corporations. Money. Corporations. The frozen pizza industry bribes legislators and obviously has a greater influence (more money) than the kids in our society. This shows just how powerful the corporations are and how they use their power. It shows how our elected politicians prioritize money over the health and common good of its people. The people with money (corporations) control our laws. Is this a democracy? No wonder streets around the world are being occupied with people trying to change these ways and limit the power of corporations. If you want to fight for the belief that pizza is not a vegetable sign this petition. 
"School lunches are hard to change -- and it doesn't take a doozy like 'pizza is a vegetable' to know that the corporate interests have more money and more Washington lobbyists than kids do. That's why pizza was classified as a vegetable during the Bush years. The Obama administration made that common-sense change, but the Republican Congress wants to take us back to the money-for-influence status quo." (Democrats.org)
It's time to start putting real people's needs before corporations' needs. America get your priorities straight starting with choosing real vegetables over pizza. I wouldn't be surprised if my generation was the first to not outlive our parents' generation.
