No, but in many cases that hot lunch at school is the only meal they get.  That's another issue.

Yes son, you can have a double quarter pounder with 10pc nuggets and play with your $700 iPad if you'll just shut the hell up.

Which is why I'm surprised the GOP would back a plan that gives in to what the spoiled little brats want instead of a take it or leave it.
