Funny how 80 million Americans traveled this weekend and ate pies, yet a week ago they claimed that they couldn't afford gas and eggs.
@benbrew it’s odd that 23% of the population is what? Not struggling? There are 335 million of us in the US. Were you led to believe the 80 million were the same people who said they couldn’t afford gas or eggs?
@MookyTroubadour @benbrew also, maybe the milk and eggs crowd put their trip on credit cards they will struggle to pay off, because they believe connection to family is worth it?
The wage gap is absolutely real. Shame the rich who have gotten us into this position through propaganda, paying for political influence, and unfair wages. The rich win if we shame the underpaid who are just trying their best to live. #politics
@benbrew Similarly, my last trip to Costco looked like it was the day before the end of the world to purchase items.
