"free groceries are now being sought by middle-class people"

Pfft, people are bitchin about nothing again.

I spend $60 / week on groceries, and that's having them delivered to me mind you (from freshdirect.com).

So that's $3120 / year, and that's with me buying good shit. If I were to be cheap and go to the grocery store and farmer's market myself, I could probably cut like 10 - 20% off that figure.

So, 3K / year, let's see..

I spend $27.6K / year on rent
Have a car that's depreciating at $10K / year, that I barely drive
Spend $3.8K / year on metrocards/metro-north monthly passes to get to work
Just spent > $3K at brooks brothers for 2 suits, a pair of shoes, and some other crap for job interviews.
Probably blow another 1K / month on stupid shit and going out for drinking

So yeah, if food prices "explode" by 20 - 30%, I could give a shit, I'd be more worried about rent moving up 5 - 10%.

And yeah, I'm "middle-class" and feel ZERO pressure from food prices.
 
Yawwn,

People got them selfs in debt and they will either die in debt or work them selfs out.

Food or no food.

The problem with the media, the want to push a Socialist agenda full of sad stories to appeal to the "heart" of Man. To push "Guilt" upon those who are successful and do not feel the Cycles of Recession. Those who continue to advance while the economy sinks and the majority fall victom to their own doing.

Who gives a shit if "X" can't afford food. They need to change "Perception" and Circumstances or they fall.

You either survive or become a "Weak Dick". Choice is "YOURS".
