While its true that our generation never needed free school lunches, it is also true that there was then no NeoLiberal agenda affecting our lives, & there was then the reality that one wage could support a family.
There was no mean spirited agenda which does not mind at all if kids go hungry, & as a result aren't as able to learn,as there is now.
The very obvious point is that hungry kids are unable to learn properly; feed the kids & that improves the problem...unless of course, the aim is to create a larger 'under class' who will do all the shitwork for peranuts because they've no alternative.
In which case those who want this would do well to look at history, particularly that of France & Russia...

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
