American school lunches are the perfect metaphor for laissez faire capitalism, actually:

they used to be much better, but due to a combination of deregulation and maximizing for profits over quality of living for the general population, they've gradually declined to the point that it's only due to the heroic efforts of severely overworked and underpaid workers that they're even edible and nonpoisonous.
