GOP "consultant" (paid hoe) Caroline Sunshine was on Jesse Watters show last night telling people: "Ummm well like actually maybe you shouldn't like um make fun of people because they can't um like actually afford a $20 burrito. That like um lyke makes them really mad and they tend to not vote for you...actually."

20Here's a boomer replying to the flappy vagina. Both are retarded.
>Use owning one as a way to invalidate (unconvincingly) everyone else's concerns
Wadda faggit.
They shouldnโt have bought food this week
that and $25.95 in the bank even three times a week would lead to a better outcome than a $28 lunch or whatever you hate imaginary people for having.
but you don't want t the $25.95 for a down payment. you want it for other things you think you deserve because EQUITY or something. can't you just get a job in HR?
This nigger lives in cardboard box.
Y'all need the Irish guy to tell you how it's done...
Seriously though, skyrider is right. I mean... if the down payment was $30k, you'd only have to skip three meals a day for a year. If you can't do that, you don't deserve a house.
Yeah you do that, I'm gonna run for mayor and my cousin's got the construction company.
Does he pour concrete? For $.40 a yard, I won't have my boys step in it while it's wet.
Don't you worry, there's so many million dollar houses out there, there is CERTAINLY enough budget to put dinner on everyone's table.
Boomers laughing at Zoomers over $20 burritos are gonna end up eating cat food.
The Hundred Dollar Hamburger seems like an impenetrable wall, but is it really?
What's the chance we really get to $100 for a burger or a burrito in our lifetimes?

what does it matter when itโs fiat money? $100 for a burger is nothing when youโll get $50,000 per month UBI.
a better measure is how many hours does the person work to afford the burger. and I would bet thatโs less favorable than it used to be. yet somehow the burger places stay in business.

9The problem is that the CPI has become this fictitious imaginary thing that has absolutely nothing to do with real world costs anymore. They're claiming inflation is 5% but people are showing real prices have doubled over the past couple of years.
So yes, they are making everyone poorer.
It might hit home to him a little harder when he realizes the gap between true inflation and what the government reports is the amount of money that he's never gonna see out of the social security administration...
He believes he did it all himself. He created what he has ex nihilo. He's an island.
As for what that true inflation rate is? https://chapwoodindex.com/
In 2026, the melt value is closer to $60
1966 big mac cost: $0.45
1966 median income: 16,444 big macs
2026 median income: $90,000
2026 big mac cost: $8
2026 median income: 11,250 big macs
That's including every advancement, all of the automation, the low wage work, the lower quality meat etc. STILL, that is a 31% decline in the standard of living, just talking about big macs.
Big Macs are shitty compared to when I used to eat them 40 years ago. Not a good measure.
But even despite all of that, Americans are STILL getting poorer when measured in big macs....
