I went to the drug store the other day and bought five things.
A bottle of off brand tylenol.
A bag of gummy bears.
A bag of mini rice cakes.
A pint of ice cream.
Two birthday cards.
The total; over $50
OVER FIFTY DOLLARS
So if a person makes minimum wage in America, that's $7.25 an hour. An eight hour shit means that person makes $58. It takes more than two days of work to purchase six items at a drug store.

I've seen the Walmart pizzas increase by 20-30%. Same with some types of ramen and frozen burritos.
An extra dollar or two adds up and you might as well buy ramen bowls for half the price instead of yakisoba.

You did go to a drug store. You need to use their coupons which are usually 20% everything.
Even then, those would all have to be $10 each.

Not the point. It shouldn't cost more than two days of minimum wage to purchase 6 items in any store. It wasn't steak or lobster. It was a few random things that were picked up on the way home.

I'm pretty sure drug stores sell things like that at higher prices because that's where they'll make profit if someone decides to grab a few more things when buying medicine. Most of that was probably the birthday cards though, those can get to be really expensive for what they are.

Until potatoes go up in price, I'm not worried in the slightest. We're all too saturated with pleasurable foods and need to cut back. If this is how its done, and getting people hungrier to change their system, then it's a fine move in my eyes.

Inflation has been creeping upon every country since before Bush. It was catalyzed the economy taking a hit worse than the 2008 recession. We're headed towards deep uncertain waters, which will be a good lesson for the many who've become too greedy.
