It’s ok to keep eating chips and drinking coke to fuel this capitalist bullshit nightmare.
Change your buying habits and maybe things will change.

“The economy is doing great, sweety.”
Don’t you love being gaslighted about the economy?

A small personal bag of Cheetos cost more than a can of Campbell’s soup. I would think the metal alone would cost more than the whole bag and chips inside. We are being fleeced.

I’ve been saying this for months now. If every metric of the economy says things are doing great but people are reporting unprecedented levels of economic anxiety, the the metrics we use to measure the economy are flawed!
Seriously. An economy isn’t dictated by natural law. We’re not finding the diffusal rates of two different viscous liquids or trying to piece together why particle X behaves the way it does in light, we’re talking about an entirely man-made artificial construct. If the people who make up “the economy” are saying the economy’s bad, we already have the conclusion and should be working backwards from that.

The economy is going great for massive companies.
For us humans, it’s quite shit.
