Bullshit. Free school lunches for all are a simple, bureaucracy-minimizing way to ensure that all kids get fed while they're at school without discrimination (eg treating poor kids conspicuously differently). You said in an adjacent subthread that you'd love if there were universal school lunches like in Japan, then cooked up a bunch of abstract reasons for why that 'isn't possible.' If you think it's a good thing, then there's no need to stand in the way of it.
