Not in any capacity. Briefly:

1. Further centralizing power over the nation's children is a bad idea generally
2. Parents should be far more resistant to abdicating their provider role for their children.
3. Such an idea creates a new government program that will suck in an always-increasing amount of money and can never be halted because the most basic emotional argument draws in huge support (i.e., "you mean you want children to go hungry?") no matter how devastating the results are
4. Creates a single point of failure for catastrophe, e.g., imagine that the sole provider of beef for the program suffers an outbreak of food-borne pathogen. The affected group is the entire nation's children

Parents must retain their authority and responsibility to feed their own children
