| Pretty big gap in quality of life between people who have no worries about their next meal and those who have to stress over every one. |

| If you make $2000 and your rent is $1800 are you food insecure or rent insecure? This is a miscategorization imo, food is incredibly cheap compared to any American income or welfare program. |

| ▲ | mfro a day ago | parent [-] | | My comment didn’t really portray what I’m getting at. Food insecurity is obviously an indicator for financial confidence. I know people can afford food, on top of the fact they will choose to pay for it because they have to. I know people who have chosen to eat and fall behind on rent. The point is, if you’re worried about your meals, you’re not living the rest of your life with confidence. It’s not something to be brushed aside. | | |
