The REAL debates are around struggling Americans’ kitchen tables

[Lisa558]

If you're still not accepting social policy (socialism) within all capitalist systems, then we're still too far apart for discussion.

I can move back and forth with progress or lack of but with you I'm seeing none so far. The ball's in your court.

What’s your definition of “progress”? Moving more toward a 100% socialist system?

- Should we keep shopping at the full-service grocery store or must we go to the discount grocery with lower quality and lesser choice?

- Can we afford our usual vacation where we fly to the spot or must we limit ourselves to a lower-cost place within driving distance, or, worse….can we afford a vacation at all?

- Can we keep paying for the extracurricular activities and lessons for Timmy and Susie, or will they have to give up their favorite activities?

- Should we reduce our cable package? How can we cut down on electricity? How can we stretch the gas tank longer?

- Should we replace our car with a model of a similar level as the old one, or must we go with a budget model?

what were you choices for each of these questions?

but the debates that will determine the outcome of the election are the ones going on around the kitchen tables of hard-working middle class families:

Who are these struggling families that you are speaking of?

Do these struggling families have a wage earner (or 2) that are HoH?
If they do have a consistent wage earner, then HOW are they struggling?

No, of course not. In a nutshell it's something like the ambitions of B.C.'s government. I'll offer I.C.B.C. as an example. That's B.C.'s government vehicle insurance program.

But I only do so in the interest of determining whether or not you're going to discuss the issue at question.

Should we keep shopping at the full-service grocery store or must we go to the discount grocery with lower quality and lesser choice?

I get went to the full-service grocery store.
Store Brand versus National Brand.
Absolutely, buy the store brand and saving 50%.

The Dollar General....you consider it 'Less quality'?
When I can buy a candy bar for $1.25 whereas in the full-service store I might pay $2.39 for the EXACT SAME item.

Absolutely, buy the store brand and saving 50%.

We all witnessed the frontal assault disguised as a “debate” on Tuesday - the one between President Trump and the alliance of Harris & ABC - but the debates that will determine the outcome of the election are the ones going on around the kitchen tables of hard-working middle class families:

- Should we keep shopping at the full-service grocery store or must we go to the discount grocery with lower quality and lesser choice?

- Can we afford our usual vacation where we fly to the spot or must we limit ourselves to a lower-cost place within driving distance, or, worse….can we afford a vacation at all?

- Should we reduce our cable package? How can we cut down on electricity? How can we stretch the gas tank longer?

- Should we replace our car with a model of a similar level as the old one, or must we go with a budget model?

These are the debates millions of hard-working Americans are having, every day, and all snide facial expressions and lies the mods won’t fact-check won’t win out.

The Debate at the Kitchen Table

ABC staged a debate this week. A presidential debate. Ostensibly between former president Donald J. Trump and former senator Kamala Harris, but in actuality between Trump and the partnership of Harris and ABC. There is always...

What’s irrelevant about the fact that we are 2 months away from an election, and half of Americans are struggling financially?

over half ..

Maybe you duffer from white leftard privilege.

You should get out more.

I'm in Hollywood three days a week.

I see HUNDREDS of LEGAL immigrant families of four who can't make ends meet even though BOTH parents are working.

The math is not hard. You should try it sometime.

I guess I'm turning Old School (R).
Because the theme used to be....Man up and Get Better.
Improve your Life.

Now that a (D) is in office, you BLAME everyone but yourself.
You even make blame for Others, just to present your FAKE claim.

Personally, I've worked my ass of since I worked in the fields and farms at 10.

So fuck off with your privilege talk.

And what would be laughable if it was not such an important issue for Americans is that Kamala is promising to fix the problem that she and Biden had a huge part in creating and/or at least exacerbating and haven't done a thing to fix in the last 44 months. Why do we have to wait until Day 1 of a new administration? Why aren't things getting fixed now?

Or maybe they don't have a clue how to fix it but just want the power to wreck havoc on the country for another four years? The end goal is to solidify that power so they'll never ever lose it again?

That’s the Dems’ strategy: drive costs up so high that Americans must depend on government assistance, and the Dems will provide it if you vote for them.

Why are my eggs costing me $3.74 at Walmart when they used to cost $1.09 for a dozen at Walmart...

Why does it cost me as much for one full grocery cart at Albertsons that two full carts used to cost?

For a long time now we have taken advantage of Albertson's senior discount day and/or Military discount day on the first Wednesday and Saturday of the month to buy a full month's groceries except for things like produce and milk that cannot be stored or frozen more or less indefinitely. And no government rigged figures can convince me that what I am paying now is not double what we used to pay pre Biden even when I buy the cheapest brands or meat or whatever.

The Democrats lie that it's a fantastic economy because they ignore what's happening in American homes. And the US will get to implosion point.

I was actually Googling yesterday when recessions were gonna kick off in the US and UK because of the actions of current administrations.

 

[sartre play]

Ayi yi yi.

Guess you have not been paying attention,
BIG banks, BIG business & billionaires Have been nickel & dime us for years.
You think the shrinking of the middle class & the rise in poverty just happened in the less than 4 years of the current administration??

When did they estimate? I’m thinking of moving even more to cash.

Even if, G-d willing, Trump defeats the airhead, he won’t be able to contain the damage right away.

^ a lib with no understanding of economics, obviously.

When you increase the demand for products and services, like importing 10 million illegals, and then print more money for giveaway programs, you get inflation. And Kamala is clueless.

The fact that she claims to have been a middle-class kid (a lie) does not fix inflation.

You don't think there is a possibility that those huge corporations have taken advantage of all the political nonsense?
That's BEEN going on for a while? Do you suppose there RECORD PROFITS have anything to do with it?
Company's need to make a profit,
but greed over concern for people IS
Getting worse, & not good for AMERICA.

YOU did not answer the question.
DO you believe that the shrinking of the middle class and the Huge RISE in poverty
ONLY happened in the last less than Four years!

Each frugal spending item listed in the OP, should've been utilized all along. Money often runs through the hands of the desperate, like shit through a tin horn, until hard realization strikes.
