Actually I fully support system overhaul.  I just think it's unacceptable, in a thread about specific kids who are hungry today, to blab on about how people are too entitled and parents should feed their kids and get all hot and bothered about suggestions that a school social worker be notified, but not one of you has an explanation for what happens to those kids while your system overhaul takes place.

The overhaul needs to happen, but unless you're going to come right out and say "The line has to get drawn somewhere so no, no one should feed these kids", then save the outrage about suggesting solutions for these kids, today.  Even if they are the kids of deadbeat parents, who are you to try to stop someone from helping them?  I'm all for parental responsibility, but I for one can't stand by yelling that parents should be responsible and watch kids who cannot feed themselves go hungry.
