Not to mention cheapening processed foods by adding saw dust (cellulose) and petro-chemical substitutes for flavoring and preservation, along with other chemicals like MSG (which goes by several names) and others often associated with cancer forming.
In all, we are being ripped off while the food they produce has been degraded to levels not fit for human consumption. Maybe this is why the great push to eat bugs is now on the table. This thinking has been a long time coming and the financial elites have known it for a long time.
25 years ago I paid $3000 for a computer and $50 for a phone. Now a computer is $300 and a phone is $3000.
Cars are another thing that should not only be cheap, but have crazy good fuel economy. Honda had a Civic (Civic HX) in the late 90's that got 45+MPG. I believe it was about $16k. You're telling me 20 years later, with advances in tech, we couldn't get be getting 60+MPG with a normal internal combustion engine?
I would, but I found everything quadruple right now. Surprised the heck out of me to see the price of a stool in Lowe. Used to find it for about $10 about 10 years ago in Home Depot. Now it's about $40 in Lowe. It's not because it's different store. I checked online it's about the same.
There is no such thing as a "free market" and there never has been. Report coming out within a couple days. Just trying to dot all my i's and get the website running properly.
Part 1 is here, though it has been revised and will be on the website. I will announce it here, and elsewhere.
You know those old nice churches? With all our advancements in tech, measurement, engineering, manufacturing, if you asked someone to remake one to today you're going to go bankrupt. Somehow we can do less for way more, despite automation
I worked for a painter in Texas back in the 70's on upper-middle-class houses and the carpentry and painting were amazing. Now in Orlando in Isleworth, 20 million dollar homes and the workmanship sux.

two words: money supply.

Many things are crazy high!

As long as there are bankers, there can be no "free market." Good luck with your website.
Yup. Banks, loans, a debt based economy. Those are the roots of all evil.

Oh I know that.
Try Pacific NW and see the boxed homes they built that they are trying to charge 3/4 of a million dollars for.
