Question

You have reached a final decision: you are going to create a new lunch program that will include healthier foods. List one benefit and one cost of the new lunch program.

Answer 1

The food will be healthier and fresh, but due to it being fresh it will cost more, about a two dollars more than the average price for the unhealthy meal

Answer 2

Benefit: higher health means higher fulfilment means higher mental agility means higher productivity means higher school prestige means higher revenue means higher capacity to expand means higher wage and so on

cost: short-term expense hence question of affordability, also perhaps there's no demand for health so the new program is unsuccessful and people want their burgers and fries lol and so on

Answer 3

If people approve of the new program, it could benefit me politically by helping my chances of reelection. One possible social cost is that parents might become upset if the price of lunch increases.
