Recently, we went out to dinner with my son, his wife, my daughter, and mr. mm. The bill for the dinner with a couple drinks was well over $100.

Let's see that dinner was $20/per person.

I could have fed the family well for a week on that >$100.

Family of four cannot be fed on $25/week/person unless you eat cheap hi carb food and not much protein with it. You will also spend many hours in the kitchen preparing food from more base ingredients..

During the 2008 depression, there was a regular poster here, a mother of two, who asked people for help with different ways to prepare beans and tortillas every day. It was really, really sad. She was in a hard way.

There was also a young doc, recently graduated, who said he was bugging out to Panama.

Don’t know what happened to either of them.
