I'll grant, here at home, it wouldn't cost that much money to produce a few peanut butter sandwiches. | If that Company operates so poorly that they have to charge $100 for a P&J, in order to pay those people, it shouldn't be used by our government.
To put it into prospective- If they serve 100,000 P&Js, for lunch, at say, a cost of 10 cents a piece, for the actual food(which is probably high at a bulk rate), thats only a cost of $10,000. They make back $ 10,000,000!!!!
Your claim is rediculous. Do you want to retact your statement?
