I know the human being and the fish can coexist peacefully

I went to the grocery store today to stock up on some vittles.  I had to search long and hard for the little box of frozen chopped spinach I like.  The display of same has dwindled to just a few boxes in the  huge freezer section.  In fact, I found that only 11 doors had frozen bags and boxes of vegetables behind them.  Frozen pizza was behind 15.  I guess those holders of wealth in America would now say (or be falsely credited with saying), "Let them eat pizza". 

This is a minor incident in the scope of things, but I think it is one small indicator of the fall of civilization...a microcosm.
