We need prices to go down in specific places, like CA where I live.

I was looking at the price of Lays chips and it's sitting at $6 a bag ON SALE!

Yes prices need to specifically go down. CA decided to DOUBLE DOWN on raising gas prices during the pandemic, and apparently they're slated to vote on another change that could raise prices by $0.45 a gallon. The world has had CHOICES to go in a specific direction, and this administration and all LEFT administrations are pushing for prices to rise, and replace all the failing families with people from China, Venezuela and whoever wants to cross the border.

Look from the good side: you will be much healthier without those potato chips.

Also, from my experience, prices never go down.

This post is a wonderful microcosm of why everyone is so divided and tribal now.

Here we have someone sharing a real world example of out of control inflation, which is true across all groceries no one grounded in reality would deny that.

Rather than acknowledge these concerns in anyway, you took time out of your day to imply because they used 1 unhealthy example this runaway inflation is actually a good thing because they will be forced to eat 'healthier'. Completely ignoring how expensive those 'healthy' items are as well (and that they continue to rise).

Then you use your anecdotal experience to further your dismission with 'well, ackkkstually ime prices don't go down so your concerns are invalid.'

This exact attitude is why there is nation-wide a mandate to eliminate the left from all pillars of power. And this is coming from someone who campaigned for Bernie.

I got a quote for trusses 1 year ago. A few weeks ago I walked into their office to order them, extremely worried the prices shot up. $500 less!

Prices do go down. I'll update you in a year after Trump is in place about the price of chips.

I think California just passed the prop to escalate some crimes to felonies, so I feel like the policy commonly used to justify this joke may be dead.
