“For example, five years ago, a Hunger Network food pantry in Bedford Heights, a struggling suburb of Cleveland, served 50 families a month. Now more than 700 families depend on it for food.”

It’s striking increase of people dependent on a hand out. My question is how many of those families garden or least have cut their calorie intake? Or have really cut back on anything, I bet they still have cable, a car, internet, ebox ECT….

Amazing how the author can lump Cleveland, Dallas and Detroit into the same comparison on loss of manufacturing jobs. Yeah, things are bad down here in Rust Belt Texas.
Has Ross Perot closed up shop?

The suburbs are hurting in Dallas, but for different reasons.
