I don't know about you, but I find it sickening how these lefty, hateful, regressive, government idiots in South America go around doing stupid and backward things like systematically reducing anemia in schoolchildren and giving free breakfasts to all school aged children to ensure attendance rates. These kids should be out there catching rainwater and giving it to Bechtel, for Pete's sake.

In La Paz Bolivia, 165,000 rations of school breakfasts are distributed every day. In 2010, some 31 million pesos will be invested in this nutritional program. Thanks to the fortification of the school breakfasts and the addition of vitamn supplements, anemia has been reduced by 97.4% in the last ten years in the schools overseen in the La Paz municipality. The School's Complementary Alimentation Unit (Unidad de Alimentación Complementaria Escolar (UNACE)) with the support of other institutions such as Save the Children (2008-2010) reached this objective by fortifying the school breakfast rations with micronutrients such as Iron Sulphate, Vitamin A, Folic Acid and others, as well as supplying direct supplements in the last two years. continues here
