You assuming that everybody who lives in a food desert is completely incapable of getting themselves to a supermarket is also very privileged of you , like you don ' t even know people in that situation and have seen how they manage it . I ' m not assuming anything . I ' m accepting the word of people who live in those situations , and that ' s what some of them have said . It ' s not up to you , or me , from our Ivory Towers , to decide what changes other people are capable of making . Everyone has their own challanges , and just because you can come up with what seem like solutions to you drive ? No car . Bus ? Uber ? Can barely afford the groceries , how can they pay for $ 7 return for bus fare , even more for Uber ? ?? doesn ' t mean they ' re viable for the people in those situations . At least watch this documentary . jicYbi 8 ZNU
