“Those who are capable of tyranny are capable of perjury to sustain it.” ? Lysander Spooner
Here in the EssU the prices have gone up dramatically, some of the groceries I buy have gone up 30% in one shot! In general or food is now 20% up in price on average I estimate, then items also have less content and new shiny packaging. All that cheap unhealthy stuff is still cheap, but that would be paying for your own poisoning. Also some of the items go up constantly, every few months, making it even harder.
As well, local transport recently went up, it is also getting too expensive for me to travel. For a train ticket to my closest city, one way, I could buy us food and make a meal for two to three people. it is outrageous.
I have no idea of how a family of four would survive, when I think of this I feel for these people, it must be hard. But if you are a Soros paid refugee you get EVERYTHING for free, while locals are pushed under the bus, it's very depressing.
I don't know about you, but I do not see many happy faces when buying basics.
From NETWORK:
I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be.
We know things are bad — worse than bad. They're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is: 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone.'
Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get MAD! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot — I don't want you to write to your congressman, because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad. [shouting] You've got to say: 'I'm a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!'
Here's the CRB bull showing the same or similar:
