Mason Bradbury - Shawnee; Week #3

Hey Everybody,
To answer the questions Melissa sent, I think that communities in the US can implement programs similar to the one in Belo Horizonte, but maybe not on the same scale. There are already school districts that buy food for lunches from local farms, and we have programs like WIC and the Senior's Nutrition Program, but I don't think (though I'm not sure about this) that our commerce laws would allow for such extensive involvement by local, state, and federal government in the buying and selling of food, setting prices, etc.
