What they mean by a food desert is an urban area where there are no grocery stores left.

This is about giving more ‘free stuff’ to well-fare crowd.

Enticing or forcing food chains to re-open or build new stores in areas they abandoned years ago. They left because they couldn't afford the high cost of business in these areas. Shoplifting, burglary, and armed robberies made it too expensive to have stores in these area.

The only goal of this program is to retain the ‘obama’ vote.

I know. Which makes it even more hilarious that they said "rural neighborhoods"!
