Many Americans Are Unable to Afford Food, Even as Unemployment Remains Low

from Sputnik News:

Despite being the wealthiest country in the world by net worth (according to 2022 data), the United States continues to struggle with hunger.
A report from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) found more than 44 million Americans facing hunger last year, including 1 in 5 children. Programs which provide food to those in need are crippling under demand, as prices at the grocery store don’t appear to be dropping anytime soon.
