Something that should be noted here is that our brains won't work properly without adequate nutrition. Our neurons require plenty of potassium to operate and other minerals such as magnesium and zinc. On top of that essential fatty acids and amino acids are super important for making neurotransmitters

Many things are noble goals. Why is one to be preferred over another?

It’s easier to talk about feeding children to ignore stuff like out of control military acquisition or allowing oil companies to pillage public lands for peanuts.

The question is, given a sum of money and a goal to further the education of the people, what is the best way of spending that money.

What other people are doing that is wrong is rarely particularly useful to think about when working toward a goal of your own.
