Here's an important effort to correct misconceptions about the habit of inner-city residents and a fact check for all the money that Kansas City intends to throw away in a misguided attempt to play grocer:
"The part that matters most for Kansas City is the section titled “Building New Supermarkets Is Not Enough.” In one study, researchers compared eating habits before and after a new supermarket opened; concluding . . . Residents who regularly used the new store had similar diets as residents who did not. The study also found that fruit and vegetable consumption decreased slightly in both neighborhoods."
Is Kansas City's "Food Desert" a Mirage?

ReplyDelete"Food desert" and "digital divide" are neat slogans but essentially fraudulent. New grocery stores do not improve eating habits and free internet access will not improve grades or reduce violence. They're Gubering us again.
ReplyDelete4:32pm for the win. These a buzzwords for when somebody needs a job or wants to put their snout in the public troth. It is shamefully deceptive.
