Should America offer free school meals or is that a state's resposability?

Plenty of money for war but none for school nutrition programs. 1 $100 billion dollar aircraft carrier or school meals for every kid in the entire country for a year! Dumbass politicians.

Free school meals would probably cost nothing at all in the long run as it would most likely be paid back in improved education, employment, and health.

But it would reduce inequality and that goes against the grain it seems.

@ninalanyon i know federally it would never happen. The benefit seems to be worth it. So why arent we making school age children's nutrition a priority? Buying military weapons to use in foreign war is a complete waste but no arguments there.
