Fixing the system of food availability is exactly what is needed. And I 100% agree that it disproportionately impacts lower income because of healthy food deserts.

But it’s a problem of our own making because of large foodstuff corporations that force addictive garbage on everyone (through limited availability and high cost of healthy alternatives and the fact that junk food is literally everywhere and many times the only option). It’s a disaster and yet it’s hardly talked about — instead we look to drugs (which can make $$$) to fix the symptom.
