Great, remove the advertising. But then I don't want to hear the schools crying when they need more money, which they always do no matter how much they get.

hah, hard not to need more when you're never given enough... But while Mr McDonalds certainly is willing to give some much needed cash, teaming up with them is something akin to making a deal with the devil. Obesity is prevalent enough in our country without indoctrinating our young like this. Money can (and should) be given from other areas.
"Super Size Me" anyone?

So McDonalds causes obesity? It's not the parents that give their kids too much money so they can buy whatever junk they want, or genetics, or the fact that kids play lots of video games and not so much outside? Or our car culture where we drive everywhere because crossing the street has become an extreme sport in some cities? Or the kids that choose the big mac instead of the salad because salads generally taste like crap? Nooooo. Lets just blame McDonalds for making a product people actually like for a great price. For your information, obesity is an individual problem between a patient and his doctor, just like hair-loss, so neither schools nor the government have any right to get involved.
