Heck - his super amazing economy required a bailout at the BEGINNING of the pandemic. And look how Conald left it. idiots After the dummycrats shut the economy down, they try to blame Trump for their failures. Typical liberal scum. 2

Unforgiven Posted November 22, 2023 Posted November 22, 2023 8 bucks for a smaller box of cereal with 30% air tells me everything I need to know about the economy. The government and their corporate allies came up with this scheme to rob Americans. Not to mention the deficit has obliterated the dollar. Its about as useless as toilet paper. 1 dollar equals about 50 cents now post covid. Maybe less. 2 1

Again, you can buy a free range Whole Foods turkey for nearly $100. My Butterball was $13. Thanksgiving foods are not elite foods. They are wholesome/relatively cheap foods. I won't argue with you if you want to tell me that the cost of a decent steak dinner for four at a restaurant has shot up in price. Thanksgiving? No. You defend inflation in thanksgiving dinner, from last year to this year, by comparing thanksgiving dinner to a steak dinner for four at a restaurant? 1

I defend it because, from my own experience the last couple weeks, it was easy to feed six people for about 60 bucks. And since there's a lot of leftovers, I'd go with 10 people for 70 bucks. This is McDonald's, or these days, maybe less. EDIT: I see the usual eyerolls and laughs from the usual suspects. But so far no one has told me how much THEY spent on Thanksgiving, and what was on THEIR tables. So give me your accounting and if its more than about 8 bucks a person I'll tell you what you're doing wrong. It's a service I provide here. For free.

I will go with regular prices on low end basics since I went to two separate stores for my materials to make sure I was getting good deals and if my effort is required then the WH is truly insane: 12 lb turkey $18 6 lbs of potatoes $6 2 lbs of butter- sweet potatos and regular potatoes and breas $8 6 lbs sweet potatoes $8 Brown sugar- $2 Pecans for sweet potato topping $5 2 loaves of bread for stuffing $6 Broth for stuffing $4 Celery- $2 Onions-$2 4 lbs of green beans $8 Half gallon milk for potatoes $3 Gravy- $6 spices for everything- $4 desserts pumpkin pie- $5 store bought home made cookies- $7 home made pie- $9 which does not include the appetizers, which was not my domain. the argument that it is reasonable to be under $60 if you are frugal is insane. I do not have Mac n cheese here, or collared greens, or any other meat. The WH statement is only accurate if you do the bare minimum. 1 1
Biden is Mentally Fit Posted November 25, 2023 Posted November 25, 2023 Thanks a lot, Brandon. https://www.wsj.com/us-news/american-dream-out-of-reach-poll-3b774892 The American dream—the proposition that anyone who works hard can get ahead, regardless of their background—has slipped out of reach in the minds of many Americans. Only 36% of voters in a new Wall Street Journal/NORC survey said the American dream still holds true, substantially fewer than the 53% who said so in 2012 and 48% in 2016
