0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:03.800
<v Speaker 1>My friends. The Washington Post is discovered how unfair life

0:00:03.840 --> 0:00:07.160
<v Speaker 1>in America is right in their own backyard, Washington, d

0:00:07.240 --> 0:00:10.280
<v Speaker 1>C is prospering. Population in the district has been growing

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:13.720
<v Speaker 1>by leaps and mountains. Some neighborhoods are becoming more affluent

0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:16.919
<v Speaker 1>by the day. As affluent neighborhoods grow, so do the

0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:21.239
<v Speaker 1>businesses that support them, like supermarkets. New markets and upscale

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:25.360
<v Speaker 1>neighborhoods are targeting foodies with all sorts of exotic items.

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:29.320
<v Speaker 1>But over the past ten years, while supermarkets have multiplied

0:00:29.360 --> 0:00:33.479
<v Speaker 1>in rich neighborhoods, poor Washington d C. Neighborhoods have not

0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:37.320
<v Speaker 1>fared as well. The Post reports that in the poorest neighborhoods,

0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:42.200
<v Speaker 1>the number of supermarkets have plummeted. A longstanding grocery gap

0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:46.440
<v Speaker 1>has grown worse. How bad is it well, in poor neighborhoods,

0:00:46.479 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 1>there are fifty thousand people for every grocery store. In

0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:53.479
<v Speaker 1>the rich areas, there are ten thousand people per store.

0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:56.920
<v Speaker 1>They're rich have more grocery options than the poor. Rich

0:00:57.000 --> 0:01:00.280
<v Speaker 1>people live in neighborhoods that cater to foodies. Poor people

0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:04.600
<v Speaker 1>live with food in securities. Supermarkets and poor neighborhoods have

0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:08.400
<v Speaker 1>another disadvantage. They've got to make thirty more profit than

0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:12.760
<v Speaker 1>the rich competitors to offset the cost of shoplifting, security,

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.959
<v Speaker 1>and high staff turnover. Oh yeah, that might explain why

0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:19.000
<v Speaker 1>poor neighborhoods have fewer stores. But that's beside the point.

0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>You have to stick to the narrative, which is life

0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:25.160
<v Speaker 1>in America is unfair because the rich have stolen everything

0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:25.920
<v Speaker 1>the poor had
