[quote=Anonymous]Good lord. First of all, unless you’re 8 years old, stop drinking Sprite at a steakhouse. And, no, in 2024 American dollars, 5 bucks for a soda at a restaurant that doesn’t have a drive through is pretty standard. Cheapskate PPs ordering “one soda for the family”, seriously just drive your brood off an embankment and be done with it already. That is the trashiest, most pathetic move I’ve heard of in a while. If you’re going out to eat you clearly aren’t destitute; just pay what things cost. And not to get overtly political, but if you object to inflation and the declining value of your dollar, maybe some of you should rethink your nearly religious faith in things like unlimited social safety nets, trillions of dollars in subsidies for families to pay $80k college tuitions, student loan “relief”, and other lefty initiatives that rely on USG printing more and more money without limit. The federal government’s annual interest payments had hovered between $300B-$600B from 1990 to 2020. Thats 30 years. For 2024 they’ll be $1.2 trillion. We’ve gone parabolic. You’re going to be paying for your soda with a wheelbarrow full of cash in about 3-4 years if we don’t massively course correct. [/quote]
