My rent went up another 20% this year after 20% last year.
Just a few things from my trip to the grocery store Saturday.
1 dozen eggs (nothing special) $5.50
Everything that was 1lb is now 12 ounces.
I bought one of those little pints of ice cream. It must have been 60% air.
Salmon. $16 a lb.
Gasoline still $4 a gallon
Diesel still $5 a gallon
The store was filled with chubby Spanish speaking peoples who I have never seen in this town. ALL had EBT cards and carts full of groceries.
American taxpayers are being sh*t on by government. I think given all the fees we pay, anyone earning under 400k should pay no taxes.
See, just like angry-man Joe said in the SOTU, "The economy is fine."
A dozen eggs??? What are you, a Rockerfeller?
Paying with an EBT gives you a discount on groceries.
Mostly on basics, but adds up to a pretty tidy sum.
Try it yourself - use the self-check out and see what the final totals are.
