so I missed all the arrogant drivel that you posted. In you feeling of supreme self importance you mistated a number of facts.

One, poor people and people who are transportation challenged DO HAVE A HARD time getting to a grocery store. In fact, I went for three years without a car. I just got one two weeks ago. I had to rely on a ride to the store because the little corner store we had in this neighborhood for years got run out of business by the big chain stores about the same time I started depending on buses. The only problem was that the big stores were too damn far to walk to. So even though I could pay for groceries, I had to wait to go when I could get someone to take me. I didn't have the luxury of being able to get to the store whenever I wanted or in some cases needed. I relied on Quik Shops oftentimes.

Second, the pathetic screed that the cure all is tofu. We should be eating tofu. You can eat all the tofu you like. Or maybe it was the other smarmy poster who came up with this crap. But this post about

how's the victim thing working out for you? it must be comforting at least to know that whatever problems you may have are someone else's fault, huh?

shows what an empty and miserable person you have to be. Do you derive some kind of pleasure from your arrogant pronouncements that are, I guess, supposed to make everyone believe you know everything there is to know about life and how life's situation's may affect other people and how they are supposed to be handled? Are you really lacking in the intelligence department so badly that you think that anyone was really blaming SOMEONE ELSE for these problems? The 'blame' is being put on poverty, not another person. (I guess though if there is anyone that can be 'blamed' for anything it's arrogant asses who don't care that some people have to live the way I described.)

How come you're just posting on DU? Why aren't all the world political and religious leaders beating on your door begging you, in your infinite wisdom, to come to the rescue of the world and make your mighty pronouncements and solve all our problems? Seems to me you're wasting your talents.
