Hunger Crisis Getting Worse! 1 In 3 US Families Don’t Have Enough Food To Put On The Table

Kitchen tables across America are the clearest picture of the damages brought by the economic collapse. As the sanitary outbreak lingers, millions upon millions are fighting against the hunger crisis. In recent times, demand for food banks has spiked so high that projections already show pantries won't have enough to feed everyone. Food insecurity levels are surging for several different groups and no one is really immune – from children to college students to the middle class, and many others.

At the same time, while the World Food Programme was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for its fight against hunger, recent U.S. data points out that tighter crop supplies could aggravate even more the food-inequality crisis that’s expanding around the globe. For that reason, we decided to gather the most recent figures that can translate the reality no one wants to show us: the rising famine emerging amongst American families. Today, we are going to analyze the U.S. hunger crisis by the numbers, exposing this harsh situation that has been growing by the day. So stay with us, don't forget to give this video a thumbs up, share it with friends, and subscribe to our channel not to miss the next chapters of the 21st-century economic depression.
Before all of this meltdown has started, rates for American families facing food insecurity had been gradually declining. Right now, the number of groups who are lacking consistent access to enough food is skyrocketing. As the economic downturn and a second wave of viral cases have been severely disturbing people's prospects to resume their lives, new estimates present some of the worst rates of hunger spikes in America in decades.
This crisis has been challenging families, communities, and the social safety net in a very disconcerting manner. However, since last year a significant amount of U.S. households were already experiencing food insecurity, and this year's economic disaster has just made the situation much worse. In 2019, approximately 13.7 million households, or 10.5% of all U.S. households, undergone food insecurity at some point. That accounts for over 35 million Americans who were either unable to purchase enough food to meet their needs or unsure of where their next meal would come from, reported the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
From those 35 million, over a third had limited access to food to the point of having their eating patterns critically impacted and their food intake was reduced. The other two-thirds managed to obtain enough food but had to survive on less varied diets or use the help of food assistance programs.
This year, on the other hand, the number of food-insecure groups more than doubled, hitting as many as 23% of all U.S. households, roughly 1 in every 4 families were affected as a result of the economic havoc that has been pushing millions out of their jobs, according to one estimate by researchers at Northwestern University. Even more concerningly, 1 in every 3 families with children is coping with food insecurity – which is double the rate since 2018, and a higher proportion than at the peak of the Great Recession, according to a new analysis from The Hamilton Project.
During "regular" times, households with children were almost 1.5 times more likely to face food insecurity than households without children, USDA data pointed out.

Tragically, the food insecurity issue is hardly unique to the U.S. In a recent assessment, Bloomberg estimated that over "132 million more people globally might fall into the grip of hunger this year, including in many places that used to have relative stability". The projections are related to the USDA announcement that says world soybean stockpiles will be smaller than expected amid the growing competition over global wheat shipments, while dry weather is becoming a threat to crops in parts of South America and Europe. All things considered, global food prices are forecasted to keep climbing, as result, adequate nutrition will become even more expensive as millions are still being pushed out of work and the economic downfall deepens.
In conclusion, the UN's chief economist, Arif Husain signaled this crisis as "a hammer blow for millions more who can only eat if they earn a wage. Lockdowns and global economic recession have already decimated their nest eggs. It only takes one more shock to push them over the edge". All the factors are mounting together and leaving many with the worrying question: Has the sanitary outbreak unleashed not only a public health and economic crisis but also a humanitarian one? That's what we are going to find out on the next unfoldings of the global economic catastrophe. So keep tuned with our channel, and we see you on the next one!

    How could the world’s most food secure nation get here? In one word…”GREED”.

    • UNITED STATES I R I E

      @Brooklynn52 Dee you are wrong. There are some people that ignored the threats from the Covid-19 deceiving politicians and kept their small stores open. Most small business owners are cowards. The cowards closed their small businesses because they are afraid of politicians, not because they were afraid of the Coronavirus deception.
      I DO NOT WEAR A MASK and I DID NOT CLOSE DOWN MY SMALL BUSINESS !
      The Coronavirus is no worse than the yearly flu.

      PEOPLE NEED TO STOP BEING MANIPULATED BY CORRUPT POLITICIANS !

      Watch the video documentary called,
      ‘IN LIES WE TRUST’ by Dr. Lenny Horowitz.

      Rev 6:12-14: And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; and the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

      @Kenny G
      “Christianity may be good and Satanism evil. Under the Constitution, however, both are neutral. This is an important, but difficult, concept for many law enforcement officers to accept. They are paid to uphold the penal code, not the Ten Commandments … The fact is that far more crime and child abuse has been committed by zealots in the name of God, Jesus and Mohammed than has ever been committed in the name of Satan. Many people don’t like that statement, but few can argue with it.”

      @Mycologist Jesus said, Man cannot live on bread alone, but on every Word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.

    • Mycologist

      @Pray for Peace well good luck with that!

      Ever tought about what Manna was? Look up (psilocybine) mycelium.

  • the7HoffmanGirls

    In my opinion, Americans selling food, factories, land, lumber, etc. to Communist China is tantamount to treason!

    • Alternatively Modern

      China is overpopulated, now they gonna slowly take little pieces of our pie.

    • the7HoffmanGirls

      aj b The hatred is for the Chinese Communist Party. The people have no rights or freedom. There are death camps for any person or group the leaders want to eliminate. The CCP is not satisfied with controlling their citizens, part of their ideology is world domination! They really do not like countries whose governments allow citizens rights and freedoms, such as those in USA constitution. The part I do not understand is why this bothers CCP so much.

    • Mateo Baysa

      @the7HoffmanGirls you have no idea what you’re talking about.

    There never was a crisis,fabricated for politics and to do away with the middle class.
    Now there is . Keep voting for stupid politicians.

    • Charlie Porch

      @Lou Vos
      Most are. Just have to pick the one who does something for us.
      And all of them lie.

    • Homestead Hopeful Tara

      I believe there’s a crisis. I just believe the politicians are blowing it up to take advantage of it.

      there are no stupid politicians, only stupid voters who keep voting the same corrupt and self-serving politicians over and over and expect things will get better.

    • Aldous Huxley

      @ronnel acido
      Many are looking for the Messiah and hoping and only to find out they are fleeced and continue to be blind to all of this. Those putting bumper stickers and wearing their emotions on their sleeves defines them and then in the end more regrets. Noticing a lot of Causcison cars with the Incumbent in office , it is a sad state of affairs. There will be regrets it is matter the degree of regrets.

    Heres some survival skills
    1. Learning how to forge – dandelions, cloves & pineapple weeds are edible
    2. Learning herbology – use food for medicine (honey ‘n’ onion juice acts like cough syrup)
    3. Learning how to farm – potatoes & onions have a ton of recipes, also radish grow super quickly
    4. Learning how to tap trees – sap can also act like glue, waterproofing, medical uses and healthy chewing gum

    5. Learning bushcrafting – filter water, starting fires, building shelters, tools/weapons, hunting
    /fishing
    6. Learning sewing/skinning – to repair and craft clothing
    7. Learing how to dehydrated – long-lasting + you can also make powders/spices with a mortars ‘n’ pestles
    8. Learning how to stay clean – animal fat + ash = soap…..charcoal + water = toothpaste

    • Mycologist

      Thank you!
      If only more people would learn even a few of these skills,
      I frequently ask people if they know how to filter water 90% of the time i get rather dangerous answers.
      5 days+ of no power means 80%+ people will not make it to the end of the week.

    • Alternatively Modern

      @Mycologist probably just like 20-30 percent wouldn’t make it survival mode will kick in for most people.

  • Crusader Cross

    NEVER accept the Conjob-19 Vaccine, it will damage or kill you!!

    • Vickie Clark

      Yeah, the politicians need to take it first. If they are still alive after 5 years, then maybe it will be worth taking.

    • Zach Freed

      @Vickie Clark try like 20 year with These crafty bastards

    • Alternatively Modern

      If they make to where I can’t work or buy things without the vaccine, then there’s going to be a lot of chaos’s and I mean big terrible chaos, it’ll make George Floyd riots seem like ginger beer.

    • al chemist

      @Vickie Clark even if they took it they wouldn’t take the one that’s being pushed to the public. They’d have their own placebo or some bs.
