You are utterly and completely wrong. Groceries are expensive? You are falling for the exact nonsense espoused in this article. When I compare what food items are required to sustain a life in good health to prices found in a grocery I see cheap cheap cheap for even the less wealthy.
When I look at what is needed to own and drive a car that meets the basic requirement of safe and reliable transportation I again see cheap.
Socialism is a promise to make us equal even if that means equally miserable. It exploits man’s natural inclinations towards envy and greed. In this system relative differences are all that matter. It is not enough to have food enough to keep you healthy but you should have prime rib. A basic cheap used car is not good enough so you should have a fine car. If not it is unfair. Capitalism has indeed provided goods across all spectrums of affordability. The fact that people are unsatisfied with their choices and desire not what they need but what someone else has is a moral and spiritual failure that no mere corporation can address.
You are so wrong. Meat at 6.99 a pound and that can make six sandwiches (maybe). I have a family of 6 (3 teenage boys and a 9 year old daughter) and we spend 800 dollars a month on groceries where 10 years ago it was maybe 200. A car today costs 20K if you go cheap where 10 years ago it was 10K. Since Bush I, prices have been horrid. Ok so I did ok on my home by selling a home in Maryland for 1.3 million and buying a home for 270K in Florida. That was about the only good news financially that has happened in 10 years plus. You need to wake up as I responded to you before because either you live in a bubble of the rich and famous or you are ignorant of surroundings.
