Forget ‘sexy nurse’ or superhero — once upon a time, Halloween costumes were genuinely terrifying.

See this picture? This comes from a town in Canada where a 24 pack of water bottles is 104 dollars and formula milk for a baby is priced at 55 dollars a pack. What’s more, a pack of diapers is 95 dollars and one head of lettuce is 26 dollars. Inuit people are starving in a country known for it’s generosity.
If you don’t believe this is true, you can find more images like this here. This is the only grocery store these people have in their small towns, and many people are going hungry & elderly are dying faster.
You’ll send aid to foreign children that are starving, so why won’t you pay a little extra to feed the people in your own country who work hard & still can’t afford the prices for healthy food for their families?
Please reblog this photo to raise awareness that even in our own countries people are starving, join the movement and show the government that we won’t sit by and watch people starve.
Children in a first world country are getting sick & starving, and nobody is even aware it’s happening. You can let people know by reblogging and showing you care. People I am close to, my friends and future in-laws are going through this.

Love how little attention this post gets from my beach blog followers.

Signal boost.

I was expecting explanation as to WHY the prices are so high… o_o

Because government-mandated slow genocide.

This here is one of my biggest pet peeves about Tumblr. Gov’t mandated genocide? Gov’t is far from blameless, but come now, let’s have some context. Prices are high because it is frigging expensive to ship via plane to an area so remote that there are no roads. It is so far that it you could drive it it would take multiple days. This isn’t to say that I don’t think the gov’t should supplement more of the cost than they do - absolutely they should.Also, the Inuit are not helpless and in need of rescue - they still hunt, have special rights to kill animals others can’t. And get much of their diet from this. Are they starving? No, not really. Again, not to say that they shouldn’t have access to a wider array of foods to supplement their diet, give infants formula, etc.Biggest problem facing the north is crap education - few teachers, fewer schools, no books or computers. No access to education is the bigger crime to decry. If you don’t have an education, it’s hard to represent yourself (and your concerns in your ages) in western society. Not many Inuit lawyers and gov’t lobbyists.
