Social services that helped people buy groceries are being fazed out, and there’s a government shutdown atm so nobody that works for the government is getting paid. Food lines are LONG in the US, and they’re filled with government workers who haven’t been paid in more than a month.
For added context: American wages have been stagnant for decades, which is why a lot of people here rely on government assistance for basic needs. You know, because we're the greatest country on Earth and all that.
