Just looking around most Americans (and illegals) should skip a few meals.

And they will just keep voting for the party that enabled this madness, just like brainwashed sheeple.

Look around. Not necessarily a bad thing. Most Americans need to skip a few meals.

Biden is solving the American obesity problem by making food too expensive to buy!

Yes I think when they say they skipped a meal they just mean they did not go out for dinner.

This can’t last. What would we think with all these skinny but healthy people prancing around.

What is the average overweight of Americans. It’s a big number. Be prepared, that’s our motto. We’ve got the reserves. Now is the time to use them.

Exactly! Nor did they cook at home....thus....”skipped” meals...and, didn’t buy groceries.

I’ve become pretty adept at reading the left’s doublespeak.

Sounds like you have, as well ;-)

If money is tight, buy a 50lb bag of dry dog food. Moisten with milk or water before eating. There are also plenty of edible bugs outside. The WEF will send you a free illustrated guide.

Nearly one in five Americans have skipped meals

They will start promoting intermittent fasting as good for the country...

I eat two meals per day. First, I don’t want to be fat. Second, I don’t want to cook and clean up after three meals. Lastly, I want to save money.

Ironically the price of beer seems to have been unaffected by inflation. Bet weed prices are stable too...gotta keep the herd happy.
