So Whole Foods isn’t where they buy their Arugula and Fleur de sel?
Somehow, I don’t think everything in the world is the Boomer generation’s fault. I seem to recall paying a lot of taxes over the last 45 years or so.
I remember Rush using this same rant (not identical, but similar) in the ‘80’s on his TV show about Kurt Cobain and the grunge generation.
History repeats.

whole foods is pricey. My little sister has started shopping at the Dollar stores...I’m thinking of doing that also.
Whole Foods is too expensive. On the other hand, a very high percentage of the stuff on the shelves in the average grocery store isn’t very healthy. There has to be room for something in between.
People who don’t have jobs can’t afford pricey food. They can’t afford the cheap imports any more either, which is why they no longer have jobs.
Millennials aren’t broke as long as they can get easy credit. Nosiree, it’s called living beyond your means, and has become an addictive lifestyle that traps many into financial slavery and poverty.
To millennials living a lifestyle like their parents is becoming impossible for many because of today’s declining job opportunities, fewer hours worked, low pay rates, and overall socialist influences upon our economy.
As long as they can get credit they can continue a pretentious lifestyle. But as available credit declines and outstanding debt accrues, they must “economize” by cutting luxuries or replacing them with cheaper or fewer alternatives. This downward spiral continues until they can no longer survive financially at their current lifestyles.
Marketing people should know a lot of the millennials are broke or fixing to go broke in the near future. At the least they should know consumerism is declining. But they are making decisions expecting the economy and employment to improve. In their political correctness and social experimentation they refuse to acknowledge the real factors that must change before our economy starts to improve.
In my opinion, things will get worse before they get better. Most will have nothing left to pass to their children except debt if things continue as they are. Millennials will be the first post-WW2 generation to achieve less than their parents and they will blame it on their parents.
Nobody has ever wanted to pay for something, but life is tough and then you die. In the mean time, shut up and pay what you owe.
I shop the street vendors of Colombia.....
Due to celiac disease, I appreciate the extensive gluten free selection in Whole Foods. Most of the shoppers though seem to be affluent women with the time, cash, and inclination to make food shopping a review of obscure and pricey foodstuffs that are a notch or two above those of mass market grocery stores. Veblen’s theory of leisure class conspicuous consumption is vindicated.
How to identify Whore Food store employee:
With over 92 million able-bodied Americans not working, the actual unemployment rate, using the same metric as prevailed in the 1920-30s, the rate is over 37% or 9% higher than the worst of the Great Depression period.
Who has money - other than those fortunate enough to have trust funds? Who can afford to change careers with jobs so scare and competition so high?
Under Obama and his minions Millennials have no chance.
I thought unemployment was 5.4%?
Whole Paycheck is where wives of high priced lawyers spend their day shopping for food they do not eat because they will insist that hubby take them to a restaurant.
Real shoppers shop at ALDI’s as they have better prices than WalMart and Save-A-Lot , their prices are stable ,and you can count on the value week after week because a tremendous amount of what they sell are their own store brands... no games with coupons or a handful of items (only) on sale.
WFM just needs to change ,, they must acknowledge that their customer base is disappearing quickly... Too bad they have such a reputation that even if they lowered their prices to something reasonable they wouldn’t attract value buyers.
I was at Whole Trust Fund today
Bought pizza and funky soap
Declared chaper 11
It’s WinCO for me.
Or Top Foods once in a while.
Millennials have less money since Ma and Pa aren’t paying.
Millennial's were told 'style' matters... eat that expensive truffle infused mustard and you're 'in'.
Well, it was a lie.
Marriage still matters, kids matter, and integrity matters. The rest of it was liberal elite lies... Liberal elites said 'substance' was out... another lie. Turns out here are no 'cool' beliefs or a flipped coffee that makes your life work...
Whole foods is the tip of a very phony iceberg.
