WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh June 30th, 2017

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 --> 0:00:21.240
<v Speaker 1>businesses that support them, like supermarkets. New markets and upscale

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:25.880
<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

0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:33.440
<v Speaker 1>in rich neighborhoods, poor Washington d C. Neighborhoods have not

0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:37.360
<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

0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:46.560
<v Speaker 1>has grown worse. How bad is it well, in poor neighborhoods,

0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 1>there are fifty thousand people for every grocery store. In

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the rich areas, there are ten thousand people per store.

0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 1>They're rich have more grocery options than the poor. Rich

0:00:57.120 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 1>people live in neighborhoods that cater to foodies. Poor people

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 1>live with food insecurities. Supermarkets and poor neighborhoods have another disadvantage.

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>They've got to make thirty more profit than the rich

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:13.200
<v Speaker 1>competitors to offset the cost of shoplifting, security, and high

0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:16.880
<v Speaker 1>staff turnover. Oh yeah, that might explain why poor neighborhoods

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:19.680
<v Speaker 1>have fewer stores. But that's beside the point. You have

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:22.679
<v Speaker 1>to stick to the narrative, which is life in America

0:01:22.800 --> 0:01:25.680
<v Speaker 1>is unfair because the rich have stolen everything the poor

0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:26.040
<v Speaker 1>had
