Here's my proposal; make free school lunches universal, and give schools the freedom to choose their own providers. In other words, let the market decide. As opposed to "picking winners", or in the case of Seymour's choice of lunch vendors, picking losers.
Fund it by increasing taxes on wealth until everyone in the country pays roughly the same proportion of tax, across all sources of income. Instead of disproportionately taking tax out of the wages and purchases of working people.
