A new survey by the Nationwide Retirement Institute reveals that, “nearly a quarter of young people skipped meals or didn’t buy groceries because of high inflation.” From the report on survey results:
Over the last 12 months, nearly two in five American households (40%) received food or goods from a food bank (22% for Millennials), and the same amount (17%) stopped buying healthier foods (organic or high-priced healthy foods). Nearly one in five Americans (18%) say they skipped meals or didn’t buy groceries due to high inflation (including 28% of Gen Z and 23% of millennials).
Joe Biden’s economic “miracle” is taking a toll, it seems, as more and more Americans are unable to afford food.
Food inflation is worsening for a number of reasons that all lead back to flawed policies by the Biden administration:
- Covid lockdowns of food farms and food processing facilities, leading to supply chain disruptions.
- Continued money printing operations that devalue the purchasing power of the dollar.
- Government policies that pay farmers to destroy crops or not plant them in the first place.
- Biden’s cancelling of natural gas pipelines, resulting in severe fertilizer shortages and price increases.
- Sharp increases in diesel fuel prices due to Biden’s anti-energy economic policies.
In addition, over 100 food facilities have been set on fire across America in the last 18 months in a pattern of attacks that appear to be deliberate sabotage. Someone is trying to burn down America’s food infrastructure.
