The College Football Playoff committee got it wrong again.
Here's the now-annual breakdown of how the committee's inconsistent logic leaves everybody once again wondering if they had ulterior motives for the choices they made.

The Playoff Committee's decision making was so bad that I now have to defend Notre Dame. PLUS: Duke pulled off the funniest conference championship, we had the UPSET OF THE YEAR, and more!

As I said, I get the same scolds either way.
It’s $45 every interaction. A typical itinerary could mean $90-180.
I’m not really talking about what *I* would do or what I can pay. The point is this is baldfaced usury for something they said was about security, not profit.

When you are talking about a food desert, the market is definitionally not providing access to food because there is…no store.
The market does provide it. The reason private stores aren't selling fresh produce nearby is that not enough ppl want it (or rather, want it badly enough to pay what it actually costs to produce and deliver)--even when the federal govt is helping cover the bill via EBT.
Poor ppl have agency, too!

People need food. Market won’t provide it. Government should. It’s literally the whole point.
