I’m a data person; I like data. I wish someone would ask Brooke Rollins: if a fair price for 3 squares + a snack (and no eating out, sweet treats, or alcohol) is $15.64 a day, is she happy that the federal government expects that a family of 4 should spend over $400 a week on food?

FYI that means parents would have to work over 60 hours per week at minimum wage just to afford food.

Ohhhhh and I forgot to mention that Rollins qualifies the whole statement with “if they have access to that”…

“IF”, in many parts of rural America, is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence 👀

@adastra1930 “IF" would be doing a lot of heavy lifting in urban food deserts as well.
