    poor workers aren’t being taxed. The US has a heavily progressive tax system. Anyone making less than 40-50k pays almost nothing in taxes as a percentage of income, as compared to someone making 300k a year.

    These meals help the poor and middle class the most and are paid for mostly by high earners.
