One of the points of the video was that a dollar store can often drive the last small grocery store out of business. Now I guess if the dollar store offers fresh or even frozen fruits and veggies, unprocessed meat, people in the area can still eat healthily.Another "authoritative" youtube video....Why do we post this garbage?
I didn't watch it...won't give the guy clicks. But what I can tell you is that I have traveled the roads of America-including many isolated small towns. The nearest grocery store is miles away. However-there are usually a Family Dollar or Dollar General that provides a service to the community. It's a great place if you are RV traveling and need a thing or two.
I guess it would be "anti-capitalist" to educate people in public schools, on how to make better food choices, how cheap junk usually costs you more and is bad for the environment, and can wreck your local economy. How to save money and budget as well. How and why they should vote, etc... Hopefully then there would be less dollar stores as the only food store in some smaller communities.
