I had to download the app to see the cost. 5.69 I’m not sure if tax is included. I’m not signing in.

. I think you should come down when you can. It’s not bad.

If I do pull up stakes it will probably be Florida. The hard part will be convincing my partner. She thinks it’s too flat and too many mosquitos.

Eh, unhelpful article. McD’s pricing varies greatly by region.

It seems to me that Biden inflation affects poor people a lot more than the rich.
Food, housing, transportation.
The stuff poor people usually do not buy, or even cannot afford, are inflating less.
In weird, but logical way, the socialist in general increase the class gap, while the free marketers lift the poor up.
Punishing the rich mostly punishes the “would be rich”, so the already rich grow richer.
There is less competition to lower the prices and there is less opportunity for the poor to get jobs.

Then we need a recession or even a depression. Something has to reign in prices and even wages. We know the root cause, printing too much money. People were paid more to stay home than they were paid for working before. They demanded more than they got in handouts to go back to work. Market watch is just another fan of the other side. Their bias and conflict of interest is deep.

When I was a kid they sold for a nickle. I made a quarter a day delivering newspapers and could make myself sick with that. 5 cent cokes, 5 cent potato chips or a 16oz Dr Pepper for 12 cents.

It actually has some hills. But it is pretty flat. Maybe she’ll change her mind.

J in the B so-called food should come with a warning label printed on every bag...

“Warning Not for human consumption”.

Fast food isn’t in the ‘basket of goods’ used to measure inflation.

Neither is slow food (groceries).

Or gasoline.
