    That is more than my weekly food budget… Is this the K shaped economy where the top 10% are better off than ever before but the rest of us are fucked?

    The old classic: boss, we sold 10% less cookies last month!

    Boss: up the price 10% and lay off 10% of the workforce!

    Rince & repeat.

    Really depends which kind of “tart” we’re talking about doesn’t it
