My kids eat the same thing every day. i wish they would eat something else…I beg them to eat something else…I take them to nice restaurants but they wont eat anything on the menu…I try to feed them something else but they wont. This thread makes me feel like you are living in Zimbabwe..is that what we have become?

Yes, that’s apparently what they want us to become.

The current condition is biflation, a simultaneous rise in earnings-based asset prices and fall in debt-based asset prices.

Awesome answer Brian. So basically eating the same thing everyday and maybe fasting every once in awhile is normal for you so everyone else should do it right? This is your implication.

Furthermore you make it sound like whole foods are not going up in price. It is only junk food that is going up in price correct. You decline to talk about energy or fuel or water as well.

Sure everyone will be fine. Once more your missing the point as your answer is Brian centric and your solution to the problem is “Live like Brian”, “eat what Brian eats”, “Do what Brian does”. You miss the point entirely that your model of life is not universal and others do not have the capability or means to eat or live like Brian. The argument is not about obesity and whole foods goodnees. Jeez of course whole foods are better for you then fast foods.

Damn Brian the argument is not that we are not a wasteful society. If you want to frame it that way then my response is that most of that waste occurs from the upper and middle class. Those that cannot afford it are not those wasting the most.

Scaredy why don’t you educate yourself about hunger in the US. Here are some numbers for you. There are 49.1 million people in the US that are considered food insecure. There are over 17 million people who live in households that were determined to have very low food security. Here are a couple links for you.

So while you want to make light hearted comments about it, and Brian believes that if everyone ate like him, that it would all be okay. That as the price of food, and energy and fuel and water goes up, all of these people will “cope” and be okay.

*******************************

The argument here is that making blanket statements that encompass everyone is a complete show of ignorance. I believe that most people that are making a certain amount of money will indeed get by. However I also believe that the disparity will grow rapidly.

There has not been A SINGLE RESPONSE actually countering what I claim will happen to those living below a certain means.

sdr no of course we are not Zimbabwe but nobody wants to actually acknowledge the amount of poor and hungry we have. pr wants to keep saying I am being melodramatic but of course doesn’t want to counter what I said as well. I also maintain that more Americans will join these ranks. So it is okay to sluff it off and say well at least they are not in Tijuana or Zimbabwe, well that is fine as well. I guess to not acknowledge the problem is one way to deal with it.

My argument is not we will not cope, “we” being most of us here on Piggington and tens of millions of Americans. My argument is that there are millions that barely cope now. That number will grow, disparity in the US will grow, and the burden on the government will grow. The argument that these stresses will be a catalyst for improvement is one that I do not dispute but I do not see a rapid or quick improvement, nor do I see those improvements benefitting those who need it most. They cannot afford it.

How many poor people are driving a Prius?
