All good in Fair. One question remains why were there healthy grocery markets in the inner cities in the 1950s but not now today?All convenience stores mark up prices higher than supermarkets. They have to because they’re buying and selling stuff in smaller quantities. That’s the business model. Everyone knows a loaf of bread is going to cost more at the gas station than at Walmart.
As for there not being a supermarket in poor neighborhoods, we’ll, that’s not the convenience store owner’s fault.
