The cost to monitor, process and enforce a program will be much more than an extra bowl of chicken noodle soup [/quote]

I am open to the idea that administrative costs may be more than the cost of providing free lunches to all students, but I would want to see the numbers that prove this.  Do you have any data on administrative costs for school lunch programs?  And are there any data on what percentage of school lunch food is actually eaten by students?[/quote]
No I do not 
But I have come across news articles in foreign media where it was stated that providing a universal benefit is cheaper due to eliminating administrative costs 
Another example is the amount of money that was granted by EU to help with the migrant crisis of 2015 and how very little of that was for the migrants.
I can find more examples if you are interested, I would bet that US systems do run into similar issues. So it is universal [/quote]

By this logic, we should stop charging for metro. [/quote]
