 * 1) This cartoon is making fun of how the government tries to make sure that school lunches are healthy. But, the school lunches are worse than they have ever been. Schools try to make people think what they’re eating is good, but there is no variety and there's rarely healthy food. Kids eat the same fatty foods every day, which is a cause of childhood obesity.
 * 2) The cartoon suggests that the government does not have good enough control of what food is being served in schools. Also, its implying that the government doesn’t care.
 * 3) The cartoon suggests that school lunches needs to be changed. Many children are obese, and school lunch is a cause of the increasing number of the obese. While children thing fried and greasy foods are good, more people should be worried about making nutritious food taste good.
 * 4) Why don’t more people care about what children are eating every day in schools? Many people are worried about eating healthy outside of school, but in schools there is rarely healthy food. The government is worried about sugary drinks and fat, so why doesn’t the government make school food healthy AND good?[[image:foodjpg-078f270367532f08.jpg width="800" height="560"]]

= = =Circular Reasoning "Begging the Question"=

Begging the question (circular reasoning) is a logical fallacy in which a statement or claim is assumed to be true without evidence other than the statement or claim itself. Example: X is true because of Y. Y is true because of X



This cartoon is begging the question because he answers with his claim with no other evidence. The boy answered the dog’s question with the same thing he stated about dense planets before.
