Black Philadelphia Woman on Inflation: ‘They’re Killing Us Without Killing Us’

VOSSOUGHIAN: “How hard has inflation hit you?”
UNKNOWN FEMALE: “It hit me hard. It’s hitting me hard.”
VOSSOUGHIAN: “Who do you blame for it?”
UNKNOWN FEMALE: “I blame the federal government at this point. If a working-class mom, who works as a paralegal, cannot buy a $2 bell pepper because it’s now $5, imagine the mother living on food stamps. Imagine the mother who’s living on minimum wage, trying to feed children. They’re killing us without killing us, if you understand that. They’re killing us without telling us they’re killing us. They’re hurting people in ways that they can’t help themselves. It’s either feed my child or — or how about feed my children and I don’t eat? But I have to go work.”
