If states are unable to pick up the temporary costs until the federal government eventually reopens, will the lack of that amount of money that is usually spread out across 42 million recipients across the country drive food prices up, down, or leave them unchanged?

How will widespread theft at supermarkets affect prices?

      Dude I’m also not american and hate US-defaultism, but ask* comms are for asking questions and that’s it. I think that trying to fragment down communities by topic works on forums but on “aggregator” platforms like reddit/lemmy/piefed etc. it just kills participation by splitting users and votes. This was also very true with subreddits - especially in non-english ones. Having your post removed because “you’re not allowed to talk about <topic> in /r/germany or whatever, you need to go to the subsubcommunity for that” just sucks
