The "great packing machine" refers to the slaughter industry the author describes through the book. He is trying to portrait and denounce the unhealthy, dangerous, almost-enslavement condition the workers suffer in that industry.

The phrase "the great packing machine" refers to the slaughter industry. This is the industry that the author discusses in his book "The Jungle." In this book, the author shows the shortcomings of the meat packing industry in the United States. We learn that this industry was extremely unsanitary, a fact that shocked readers. We also learn that the workers who work in this industry often faced long and difficult hours, harsh work and very low pay.

Imagine you are writing an argument to convince others that soda machines should be removed from all public buildings, including
Mazyrski [523]
It would be both the parents and the doctors. The schools are the ones who had the machines installed in the first place and the students are the ones who take the most kick out of it.

Doctors, as we know, are experts in health and living conditions, which means that they know it’s a health risk for those who tend to consume sodas more often then they should.

Parents only want the best for their children and soda/pop are considered bad for the digestive system if consumed in massive amounts. Because parents don’t have complete control on their children at school, the freedom of course the child has gets exploited.

Hope this helped!
