We were living paycheck to paycheck BEFORE the inflation. Now we're just NOT buying food. Or maybe skipping auto insurance.
People want to know why the PS5 isn't getting the amount of people buying it that the PS4 had? It's because the games look 90% as good on the PS4, they already have the PS4, and the PS5 costs $500 at a time when $5 would be a hard sell.
Taco night is just GONE from our lives. You have to buy so many ingredients. Ramen noodles is like a dollar per pack, and that's it.
This is like saying "Well the bleeding seems to have stopped from where this guy was stabbed in the chest by spears 175 times." Yeah, the bleeding may have stopped, but the guy's still dead and unable to do anything about the fact that he was already stabbed.
Have you tried not being poor?
