“problem is the same across the U.S.”
I have not noticed it on Buford Hwy NE of Atlanta.
The Fresh Market is overflowing, as always, with immigrants
(mostly Mexican but also other Latinos and some Africans).
Mostly they don’t have credit cards. They have cash jobs and come in with cash in hand. Free Market Capitalism at work... even if the owner is a Chinese immigrant.
There is still over 85 million illegals here.
