How about you go donate it out of your own pocket then? Go buy a cooler of lobsters and go hand them out to people who are "food insecure". At least those people will have a face to put with the generosity instead of expecting the government to provide it year after year.
Forcing people to pay in excess to ensure others luxuries is asinine.
Attack isn't the finest look, but I can see you're upset.
Lobster, BTW was the go-to poor peoples food in New England, and one was only allowed to feed indentured servants so much per their contracts. It was so looked down upon a that the stigma remained until the 1980's. Please see the movie "Mystic Pizza" with Julia Roberts.
Sir, I (like you, and everybody here) AM the government. We all donate money every paycheck.
Lobster in the Midwest is a luxury. Beef in Alaska is a luxury and oranges inside the arctic circle are rare. Location, rarity, and climate determine what is luxurious.
Not only do i not DONATE to the government, I am robbed out of every pay check. Im robbed every year I pay property taxes.
I am not the government. Im not employed by the government and while I vote every year, it makes me as much a part of it as my I am part of Google or Citicorp because Vanguard decided to put my 401k into these companies.
Luxuries are any good that are unnecessary or cost more than a alternative. Beans and rice are a great protein and provide excellent value over luxuries like beef or lobster.

Carbs in Rice 28g, beans 20g, lobster 0g, steak 0g.
Yes, very energy dense food. Great for feeding the food insecure. You won't be seeing people starving to death with beans and rice as a source.
