Thats more drastic than I thought it would be.
Real world consequences of a shut down economy... hopefully goverment steps in and helps struggeling familes.

You mean real world consequences of a fucked up social/welfare system.

With a functioning social/welfare system, there wouldn't be any reason why these families wouldn't have enough money for food, especially in a rich country like the USA

I have no idea what those same numbers would be like in denmark.
Supposedly in denmark we used around ~11% of a families budget on food (on avg, with the less well off?), with a family of 4 (2 parents, 2 kids).
And its around 1000 kr/month for food pr person (~150$ USD).

Here we also have rich and poor, but our poorest usually arnt starveing (even if they have a tight budget).
Atleast this is what I believe to be true, but I dont actually know.
