(12,787 posts)When the price of red meat goes higher, I do Not buy chicken. I keep buying red meat but less and less of it. It's NOT as if Anyone just eats red meat and when it is overpriced they switch to a different type of meat.
We all buy all the meats and buy less and less as the prices go higher and higher. How is pretending I switched to buying more ground beef instead of steak because you priced me out of the market a more accurate measure of the cost to survive? It's a hoax. People are not robots. We don't give up eating our favorite foods because of prices.
It's just another scam by the rich elite capitalist to duck you over and take back the money you already spent on your own Social Security. Your Social Security that they took out of your wages, is now going into some fat rich guys pocket. It should have gone to you.
