    I’m a single man 43, when Donny was reelected my weekly grocery bill was about $80. As of march my groceries have cost me well over $170 and as of last week it is close to $200. So much winning we might get tired of all the winning.

    What will be the total effect on the US economy after the Orange Shit Show concludes? On the other hand, does this mean fewer animals will be slaughtered to feed obese AmeriKans?

      It won’t dent animal food production. It will probably produce more food waste though. The corps will probably remain just as profitable, at the least

      Me either I might by a pack of ground beef a week. Where I am it is nearly 6 us dollars a pound which translates to about 12 ish dollars for my family for one meal component. Chicken is not a lot better at around 4 dollars a pound.

    It’s only 61 percent because 38% have started stealing groceries. The remaining 1% steals from all the others, like it always has.

    I used to buy a lot more. The combination of getting laid off and only finding a shit job that pays shit (thanks AI) and inflation are the big factors.

    Capitalists can go fuck themselves. If they want people to buy they need to pay us.

    So glad that PEDOnald the Pumpkinhead is focused on:

    1. Covering up the Epstein files
    2. Distracting from the Epstein files
    3. Starting wars and raising prices for everyone
    4. Kidnapping foreign leaders
    5. Plotting to steal resources (such as from Greenland and Venezuela)
    6. Disappearing gardners
    7. Babbling about “men in women’s sports”
    8. Still fixated on better men and trying to trash-talk them because he has small dick energy (Biden, Obama)
    9. Engaging in obscene levels of fraud and corruption that will possibly set up himself and his crime family to be bankers to the world and deal himself so much money that it would embarrass Putin and make his crime family the richest in the world - https://www.unftr.com/trump-stablecoin (Stablecoin/USD1/GENIUS and Clarity Act)

    Only 61%? My weekly grocery bill has gone from $100 to $150 on average. That’s with cutting back by no longer buying snacks or nice cuts of meat.
