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 five, imagine a mother living on a food stamps. Imagine a mother who’s making minimum wage trying to feed children. They’re killing us without killing us. If you — 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 well how about feed my children and I don’t eat. But I have to go work.”
