I went to the grocery store earlier this evening. People where shuffling down the aisles like zombies. One out of every other shopper was commenting to anyone who happened to be near how outrageous the prices were and how much smaller the packaging had become.
I couldn't help but comment every chance I could, "And to think some people actually voted for the destruction of their standard of living..."
:evilgrin: Sorry, I have no pity for bush-bots who are now complaining about the fact that they can't afford food.
4. The amount of fuel being used by the military is not helping anything.
Not sure why decaffeinated tea is so high though. I was shocked at the prices of just about everything so I decided to stick with stock ingredients so that I could make things myself. Soup etc...
It's getting ugly out there, that's for sure. So many people are used to buying meals that are already made- no one cooks from scratch anymore but I'll bet people are going to start learning how. It's much cheaper.
The Publix near my job is VERY busy with Reaganistas at lunchtime. I need to wheel in there, pick up an apple and say nice and loud - "$2.99 a pound for apples? Damn Republicans."
At the gas pump and the grocery store, NEVER miss the opportunity to associate the bushites and the pain of the purse. Rub it in EVERY chance you get! Doesn't hurt to remind them of the gazillions being spent on the wars either. While standing at the pump as the owner of the SUV next to you grimaces as they watch the numbers while they gas up you can say something like, "I wonder how low gas prices could go if we didn't have to fuel all those tanks and F-16s in Iraq?" :evilgrin:
