Keep your head in the sand at your own risk, dude.
I live in a fairly nice rural town in Illinois. The problem is that things have gotten so chaotic in Chicago that all the hoodrats who have the ability to leave are just spreading out into the rest of the state, and bringing Chicongo with them. It definitely wasn’t this way a decade ago.
I got 2 sausage egg and cheeses on a biscuit, 3 hash browns, and a coffee and it still cost me 14 and some change, woulda been over 20 had I not used rewards for a free hash brown and a deal for a 2 dollar sandwich. It’s unbelievable, 4 years ago that would have been under 10 dollars with a deal and reward.
That "goyslop" was made with actual beef that wasn't pumped full of hormones and fed microplastics, and the fries were cooked in tallow instead of sneed oils. We unironically need to go back to that level of basic food quality
>The commercial he posted is from the 90's though.
Yeah, that other anon is an idiot. He should have realized that societies immediately crumble and it doesn't take several decades to rot.
The most satisfying meals I get are when my mom comes by with baked chicken casserole. She's a boomer like my dad but unlike him she doesn't act like my generation has it easier on the financial side of things and actually helps out me and my bro instead of telling us to "quit fartin' around, make more money and maybe have some grandkids".
I was holding down two jobs until just last month by the way, when I got fired because the company could only afford to keep on one out of three of us and they went with the boss' nephew.
I think boomer women are a bit more realistic and aware of changes in the world and less self indulgent than the men. My boomer parents are complete opposites, my Dad insists on spending money he doesnt have "because you only live once" type shit and my mom is frugal as frick and lives like the world is still depression era 1930s hooverville.
Old adds totally remind me of how cringey society was when it came to blindly believing anything you were told. But it is still very comfy. Ignorance is bliss
yes the "pandemic" where flu cases dropped to zero and car crash victims were dying of "covid".
But people like you STILL refuse to accept reality and will just double down and continue to watch society burn.
Just do the world a favor and have a nice day you worthless coward.
But why do we have to have inflation? Why did things cost literal pennies only 100 years ago as they had for the 100 years before, only for them to cost multiple dollars today? Why should we be okay with this?
Why do you give a shit so long as wages match pace? Why do people have this moronic obsession with what one unit of currency is worth when that doesn't fricking matter?

moron commie. You don't deserve more money because the machines you operate got more efficient and productivity increases have a deflationary effect.

I'm not an adonis but I'm in decent shape and I feel good, stop eating things that are poisoning you fatass, the fast food corpos are laughing at you with these prices.

I'm mainly talking about the legal uncertainty. For example, what taxes should you pay on it. You did pay taxes, right? Even if you made your profits in 2013, you still owe some type of tax on it. Hope you never get financially audited.

This is literally a white castle slider, shits still like a dollar. Inflation at 4% is normal and steady and expected and this was 28 years ago
I wish I was born even later than I was. I had to spend a third of my lifespan without AI porn and 3D rendering. I can only assume that in 10 years it'll be in a state where I can just drown in my own coom daily with minimal effort. if that costs me 8 dollar cheeseburgers, that's a cost I'm willing to pay.

Aside from the second half of 2008, purchasing power of USD has fallen every year since 1940.
Though a lot of damage was done in the 1970s, the 1980s and 1990s were somehow still comfy.
After 9/11 and 2008, it became clear that we're all being crushed to death by inflation and price gouging.
This while we outsource everything to cheap slaves in the Far East, causing the rapid growth of Red China.

Again, who fricking cares? If everything costs a hundred times as much and everyone makes a hundred times as much, it doesn't fricking matter. Do you think Japan is 100x worse off than us because the conversion ratio from yen to USD is 100:1? If they lopped two zeroes off all their currencies, would they then be 100x better?
