So the people shopping there are the ones paying extra, not the stores. What Happens to Shoplifters?
Alot of studies into health inequalities rely on morality, death, and morbidity, illness, data.

This will mean there are more little corner shops with higher prices just because the shopkeepers know that they can charge higher as the community prefer not to travel to get their weekly shopping.
