Rising grocery prices, loss of federal benefits causing hunger spike in DC

[@Gator777]

Having a close grocery store is not a right. If a business is not profitable it will not stay in business therefore it leaves the area.

[@DRventura333]

Aside from the elderly who have no means of transportation, why are there so many under 25 African Americans with kids, there who are already receiving Welfare benefits inclusive of EBT cards for food purchase? Many of the grocery chains closed shop in those areas due to the constant theft from the same communities that are now without fresh groceries.

Bad neighborhoods have people robbing stores so they close. Your own fault. It’s your community.

[@nancyfarkas3592]

Wow that was just wrong

[@chricweedon2205]

Don't DC give plenty of food stamps 😕

[@jeffteyrosado9966]

Stop selling the EBT

[@DJ-vj4vi]

Most of these hungry people are low skilled and working part-time jobs. That is the problem

[@nancyfarkas3592]

100 percent FALSE! Even with a full paying job you can’t make enough to feed you r family and pay bills. Don’t be so ignorant!

sure, it IS "intentional. You all intentionally destroy your own community businesses with thievery. But don't despair, you're still getting hand-outs.....obviously

Another thing not being talked about is the fact that Trump's Administration added 7 Trillion more to our deficit. This deficit will cause the rise of foods. Bide did add to this deficit but in the same 4 year cycle he only added 4 Trillion to the deficit. Driving prices on food higher. It is not getting better. There are solutions to the problem. Paying off all my credit cards is a solution. Who needs to be a slave to Creditors? Learning to be financially free of debt is the answer.

[@mandybradley3079]

Biden made life more difficult. Stop voting democrat, wake up.

[@Gator777]

Tell the Congress that.

[@nancyfarkas3592]

Paying off credit card easier said than done

False you have not a clue of what you’re talking about.
