There are other countries where kids bring their own lunch. We always make sandwiches and a snack for our kids to bring to school.

I do think school-provided lunches are a great idea and if done right, would guarantee every kid equal access to healthy nutrition. Unfortunately we don't have that in NL, and clearly the powers that be don't want it in the US either.

But punishing kids for lunch debt is nuts. That's absolutely a symptom of the US wanting everybody to live in debt.
