That is an excellent observation.
Could you please provide more information about the current shortage that is preventing working individuals from being able to purchase food or have access to nearby dining establishments like cantina for lunch? What about individuals who are currently unemployed? Will they need to use their savings for groceries, or is it necessary to be employed at all times, similar to the situations in North Korea or China?
No shortage, we just have laws that think about people’s well-being, which might seem weird to people from some countries. Unemployed people get unemployment money for some time (I’m not sure how long, it used to be 6 months, but I never needed this, so I’m not sure if anything changed in the last 15 or so years), provided they worked for some specific amount of time prior (I don’t know how long). If you have savings, you can use savings, obviously. Not sure what your deal is, but I live in an EU country, which is not similar to China or North Korea at all.
