The pandemic sent food prices skyrocketing amid a slew of supply chain disruptions, but food costs have been steadily rising over the past five years. The rise in prices can have serious consequences for the most vulnerable Americans. According to the USDA, 13.8 million Americans qualified as food insecure in 2020. Watch the video to find out how much food prices have risen, what's driving the increase and how businesses and policymakers can fix it.
The Biden administration said Wednesday it plans to take “bold action” to enforce antitrust laws aimed at meatpacking companies it says are causing beef, pork, and poultry prices to rise at the grocery store.
Even though beef prices have been rising, farmers and ranchers have been making less money, the White House said.
Climate change, labor issues, transportation concerns and other supply chain disruptions have been contributing to the rising costs over the past several years. The pandemic disruptions then sped up the rate of growth in prices.
These price increases have significant consequences for the most vulnerable Americans. The United States Department of Agriculture reported Wednesday that 13.8 million households were considered food insecure in 2020.
The Biden administration last month increased assistance for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP. Previously known as Food Stamps, the benefits were increased by more than 25%.
“It’s a combination of all these factors,” SuperMarketGuru.com editor Phil Lempert said. “It’s very difficult to say what did the pandemic do? What does climate change do? What is transportation do? So we’ve got to lump it all together. And we’ve got to solve them all together.”

The term "Food Scarsity" coming from a nation who wasted millions tons of food each month is what I call an irony.

America rather destroy food , than have an abundance. Too much food would drive down the cost.

@@robertsmith1865 We have plenty, its just exponential inflation. Purchasing power of the dollar has been exponentially decreasing for years, aswell as other global currencies other than a handful. Prices of everything imaginable continuing to rise because $ is becoming less and less valuable for people. 10 years ago $10 was awesome because I could grab 2 chicken sandwiches and pay for the 30 mins of gas I use to get there. Now id be lucky if I could just get the 2 chicken sandwiches with the $10 let alone pay for the drive.

@PhilipMurray251 Год назад

Inflation begins when dollars are printed. Printed dollars are a data input to the CPI. The CPI print is the feedback loop from printed dollars. Keynesians have been trying for decades to print dollars to create inflation-used as a signal to show the stimulus is working. Then before inflation gets entrenched, deflate by destroying printed dollars. The problem here is the Fed didn’t remove the dollars it printed to stimulate. So the higher prices are here to stay for a while. The dollar strength is transitory. You will see a weak dollar once those bonds the fed has on its balance sheet become difficult to sell as higher yielding assets will be more desirable to investors.

I lost everything in the last recession and learned from it. I made sure to live below my means and save every possible dollar. I also invested correctly and diversely instead of buying material things, restaurant meals, and expensive vacations. I've been waiting all these years for the next recession so I can capitalize on irresponsible debt. If this video is correct, it will be a very exciting investment shopping spree for me

@wiebeplatt4749 Год назад

Consider the economy as one huge engine that produces the life styles that humans live & prosper & create a healthy financially secure future for their families . Corruption, manipulation , creation of unhealthy political policy & diplomatic environments is a recipe for engine failure. People are equally losing money in the financial market in the midst of all these.

@marianparker7502 Год назад

Inflation is gradually going to become part of us and due to that fact any money you keep in cash or in a low-interest account declines in value each year. Investing is the only way to make your money grow and unless you have an exceptionally high income, investing is the only way most people will ever have enough money to retire. Personally I hired ‘’Stephanie Priscilla Bonillo’’ a financial advisor who I copy her trades and with a good 7% in ROI monthly.

In terms of "being smarter" about buying food, what planet are these people on? Who among us on a tight food budget, does not already regularly shop by 'per unit' costs, store brands, frozen alternatives to fresh and buying what's on sale? And they forgot to mention shopping at outlets, food warehouses, farmers markets and other cheaper alternatives to standard grocery stores -if we have access to them. That's where they would find us (if they descended their ivory towers)... comparing labels and doing the math over by the sale shelves.

But here, you get good prices on fresh high quality food and if you get to market just before closing you can get some great deals. We barter too because most of us are growing something useful.

Now say you have a good job and the costs doubled for the same food list, I would still pay for that because without great health you can't do most jobs accurately. Health is partial wealth and personally I would not sacrifice on. I would sacrifice things I don't need however.

And yet at the same time, corporate gods like aldi Kroger’s, Publix, hyvee, save a lot etc will literally throw away unsold food. Cause what sense does it make to give it away.

@Jay-gi7np 2 года назад

Its not the printed paper that is the problem, its the digital USD that has been "printed" by the large banks. Did you know only 3% of ALL usd is even printed, and for every $1 physical note that exists, there are $33.34 of digital usd. (1 : 33.34 ratio) . If youd like a documentary or 2 explaining just how this was allowed to happen, and how people didnt see it sooner, then I can reply with those. Sums up how the LARGE majority of USD is actually created by the large banks and not the federal reserve. The federal reserve creates and prints ALL physical notes, but since thats only 3% of USD its not even really effecting inflation at all compared to where the other 97% is coming from. In my personal opinion, based off socially how inflation is continuing to become more alarming. I think the federal reserve is only printing SOOO much now because people are losing faith or are worried and so are withdrawing funds from their banks, and due to the (1 : 33.34 ratio) of physical to digital their isnt NEARLY enough printed USD to reflect the digital USD. What I think we are seeing is a last ditch effort to try and stop the "run on the banks" and trying to print as much as people are trying to withdraw. But 3% is a too low starting point to only try and reflect the other 97% physically, and depsite their efforts I think soon at somepoint people will start being told "Sorry, we dont have any physical notes for you rn" and once that starts happening then its over.

No it's not hard to get snap. It also helps farmers and sell food that a lot of time just gets spoiled.

The thumbnail made me drool. I havent been in a grocery store for months now 😅 And then I proceeded to watch the video to know more about the food prices in the US tho I am not from there... But more foods were shown and I got hungry now. 😅 Also your grocery is nice. Really nice that it makes me want to just teleport there and snatch all those foods

Glad I have the my amex card that gives 6% back on groceries. That should cover inflation for a while 🙌

@musabbir1 2 года назад

as long as you have a big family and buying your grocery in supermarkets that accept the card. You need to buy about $1600 before profiting from that cashback. If you manage to buy 6k worth of groceries in the year, you would make about 4.4% after fees which is what the current inflation rate is now as of September.

@HermaeusM 2 года назад

@@musabbir1 yes! We’re around $500/mo which makes the most of the 6% back and the annual fee is more than compensated for

I work hard, 50-60/wk to get better at what I do; developing skills and becoming more efficient. More and more customers choose me over my competitors, and so my wealth grows. Am I getting wealthy on the back of the average person? Today I make 10x what I made a decade ago, by working hard and following the Golden Rule. Most wealthy individuals got there by providing something of value in the market, a good or service. I wont apologize for the money I make, by being better for my customers than my competitors. Additionally, my wealth has allowed me to directly help those around me and in my community. About 1/3 of my income goes to taxes, and another 10th as tithing, I’m grateful for my income and definitely not ashamed of it, or how earned it.

I think it is partly supply and labor costs. It wasn't long ago you could hire someone for half the cost. Shortages in food production will occur from time to time but the current increase to me is on labor. The food has to move from one location to another and then it has to be stored and put on display and sold. The labor costs for all the human hands that touch it are increasing.
