[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have an obesity epidemic, especially among lower income. There isn’t food scarcity, there is food over abundance. [/quote] Healthy food is expensive. Unhealthy, preservative-laden foods are cheaper. Plus poor people often lack access to good grocery stores, along with often suffering from stress, lack of sleep, lack of access to healthcare and many other issues that contribute to poor health which can also lead to obesity. [/quote] Usually stemming from poor life decisions to drop out of school, become a parent at too young an age and not being able to hold a steady job long enough to get promoted to management or receive benefits. Hosts and foodrunners make $17+ an hour at the local restaurant where my 16 yo DD works. And the assistant managers are young 20 year olds with restaurant experience. There is also Costco. Please don’t act like $8/hr McDonalds jobs are the only option. [/quote]
