providing more and more money to those "in need" will not solve the issue
That's true, it won't. It's not money that achieves a solution to the situation. It's motivated people on both sides of the problem.
Before that happens, hungry students will have a hard time paying attention to their teacher.
And those teachers may have salaries that discourage other qualified job seekers from applying for the job. Look in any school parking lot. Count the late model Mercedes and BMWs. Then as the teachers walk to their more affordable Nissan's after work, keep an eye out for Gucci and Prada handbags. I'm pretty certain you won't find any.
Hungry students and teachers are not the problem, but properly guided they might be part of the solution.
