Food bank only had raisins. My food stamps were cut by two thirds. Inflation is way up. Specific shortages. I asked some people around me and they’re also struggling. No emergency announcements. Feels like a cover up. I heard US shale oil is peaking. All this and I live in the central valley of California, ag central. I should have food easily, instead it’s a struggle.

    How did the price of oil affect the raisins in the shelf? Why relate the two?

            How is it creating a food shortage? It would be a factor in a price increase not a shortage.
