It was entirely about having fresh food at stores. And then when stores opened offering that, surprise, people didn't want or couldn't afford that stuff anyways My experience living in a food desert was that the grocery store in the next neighborhood put out its dairy on the sell-by date, I had 2 days before I had to throw out my (sealed) cheese. So I didn't shop there much, it was worth grabbing groceries after work and taking them an hour on the train cause you know they'd still be good later in the week. Things are less dire now but the local grocery store's produce is nasty. And I'm fine w/ irregular plants, I garden and as such have to ignore a fair bit of bugs, rotten parts, etc. But when you gotta cut away a quarter of the head of celery from rot, not awesome stuff! Probably doesn't count as a food desert, still hosed in a similar way. Frozen vegetables are not a good substitute, you lose some nutrition at the processing stage and some reheating them safely. Same poo poo with canned. Better than nothing and adequate to ward of scurvy, but we can do better

the biggest killers in the US are heart disease and cancer. In the UK, where people can go get screened and treated without going bankrupt (for now), dementia deaths outnumber cancer deaths.

Jaxyon posted:um there not being nearly as many grocery options in poor areas, even affordable and minority owned, is literally a real thing in LA but go on Not as many options isn't the same thing as no options. The food desert studies excluded places like Walgreens or other places with lovely but real options for canned stuff, some basics for cooking, eggs, milk, etc. The solution to poor areas having fewer good options for buying food wasn't to give money to companies to open stores with more fresh vegetables, but that's the one that was chosen since it enriched politicians friends Heres an example https://abc7chicago.com/whole-foods-englewood-closing-grocery-store/12447317/ At the time, then-Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the city committed over $10 million in tax breaks to help make the store a reality. Giving whole foods 10m is totally fine. But giving people money to afford whole foods prices? No. Absolutely not.

Louisgod posted:feels like 97% of americans live in an innate state of denial as they lack the general tools to compartmentalize our state of collapse without being completely overwhelmed, so it's easier to ignore it and focus on important things like football and red wine. Credit where due, they leave some spare energy to get wildly, violently angry that trans people and drag queens exist.

silentsnack posted:empires collapse all the time, it's natural. An Empire with America's perverse socially demanded/conditioned optimism collapsing is going to be interesting because at least Augustine knew what the gently caress was up, and was optimistic about what was going to come after Rome, instead of smiling and going about his day repeating "Roma invicta". It's like with covid. Most societies faced with epidemic deadly disease tried to do something and saw it as a bad thing. America devoted all of their energy into pretending nothing was wrong. I don't know, I think speculation about American Optimism can be trite but I don't really know what happens when a society that expends tremendous amounts of social control into the maintenance of optimism has to contend with your lying eyes warning you something is going on nearly constantly. I think from covid it will be fair to say you won't be able to say anything about it, much less do anything (or expect anyone else to), but... lol I mean...  Eventually the house burns down anyways.

Mr Hootington posted:It kinda isn't bullshit. The "hand out" that has had the most direct impact on inflation was the PPP loans. The high inflation has numerous causes. Lol that you're flailing at a half dozen potential 'causes' when there's one cause: 6. Price gouging "but my input costs went up!" yeah that's just your supplier price gouging. even the miniscule amount labor costs rose is driven by literal rent-seeking, which is just price gouging in another sector. 'inflation' is just the rich getting richer. Even the fed money hose didn't do anything to inflation - until they turned it off, and since number must always go up the price gouging set in.
