      High Prices for High Liberalism that says the following in Europe "You will not own anything or have anything but you will be Happy!" Is this the crap you support! When a single Cucumber cost 15 bucks, and a head of Lettuce is 20 and your are prevented from growing your own veggies because you hate the truth of Jesus! Is this what you mean?

      For the most part agree. But back to the cost which is the main point of the video......the price alone for 1-2 people is why my bf and I only eat out once EVERY OTHER weekend. We both make in the 75k-90k range EACH and childfree but regular groceries prices alone has us fighting for our lives lol.

      LOL, easier said than done. I did not "stop", but eat out once in a while. Eating at fast foods 3x a week , every week is just financial lunacy. I find it perplexing why people go to In N Out, wait one hour in their cars to pay $25 for a combo.

    Have not eaten fast food in 3 years, last time it was so bad I could not finish it. Before this price hike quality was down, during covid, and prices were climbing. I do business with a few locally owned places about every 2 months and mostly eat at home. I want my money to stay in my community, not in a CEO's or corporation out of the country bank, plus I want to stay healthy, a win win for me.

      It's only because prices have jumped up so high and so quickly that people are experiencing "price hike" shock.

      The reason is because people had more money to spend, corporations tried to maximize profits, so they resorted to price gouging.
      There's no inflation, just greed. And the greed must be fought with price caps, and heavy expensive fines as well as arrests.
