[quote=Anonymous]I hate how these threads lean on stereotypes with little to no regard of the realities that families face. All families are working families. Food for one week for a family of four is about $225-300 in DC. Basic proteins and two veggies. Junk food costs just as much, if not more. Throw in a child with chronic illness or severe allergies and you're cutting down food options, and adding lotions expensive topicals, Otc medications, drs appointments... Tearing people down is the main reason we have no hope. So quick to tear someone down gives us no will to try to get back up. Missed work= missed money. Try self-enforcing family/medical leave laws in a low wage job and you find more pushback and strife. The poor always pay more for everything than the wealthy. Always. Cars? The "new and used cars" are normally at astronomical interest rates. Predatory loans fund the wealthy's zero interest loans. Same vehicles wind up back on the lots and in rotation to the poor who are kept in debt slavery. Weaponizing eating 🍽 [/quote]
