OK.
I'll concede that $80,000 teacher salaries at Pahoa schools are the rule rather than the exception.
I would then conclude that a state and it's citizens who are willing to pay a teacher $80,000 to teach, in a building that cost millions of dollars to construct, would then be foolhardy to draw the line at the cost of lunch for students who are meant to sit in that building and listen to those teachers, if they aren't fed properly at home.
