How did we let it get to this? We used to have it all bros…what went wrong?

>>529459074As of 2026, Ryan Gosling's net worth is estimated to be around $70 million, primarily from his successful acting career, endorsements, and real estate investments. He earns significant paychecks from his film roles, with recent earnings including $12 million for "Barbie" and $20 million for "The Gray Man."

Inflation
>>529459074minimum wage was $7 in most states, now it's $16-$20.
>>529459074>How did we let it get to this?you memed an orange nigger into the white house and then got everyone pissed enough to vote in another dementia ridden fuck only to meme the orange nigger back in again
>>529459326>luxeRetards ghetto trash is their target demo
>>529459074>prices aren't the same as 40 years ago: a thread.
>>529459821are you actually literally retarded?
>>529459592>inflation affects life-saving healthcare and food and other products humans can't refuse to buy by 10,000% but doesn't affect TVs, don't question it broOr insurance and doctors are greedy fucks blaming the economy for their own unaddressed corruption
>>529459821You lie
>>529459821also comparing fast food prices is disingenuous because these places always have promotions. just because they sell something at x price doesn't mean that it's viable for them to do so. the $5 footlong is often used as an example, but that was notoriously unprofitable to the point where many franchisees refused to honor it.
>>529459074Autistic question: Why does the CENT symbol look like a C while the DOLLAR symbol looks like an S
>>529459074Bros...take me back to the 90s when I was just a kid playing my N64 and all I had to worry about was having to wake up early for school.
>>529460859no, die for israel bitch.
>>529460180state minimum != actual pay. most min-wage jobs in my state pay $2-$3 more than the state minimum. it's same in texas...https://www.bls.gov/regions/southwest/news-release/minimumwageworkers_texas.htm>From 2016 to 2017, the portion of hourly paid workers in Texas who earned at or below the federal minimum wage declined from 3.9 to 3.1 percent.a quick search on reddit shows that most places in texas are paying $12-$13. i bet you it's like that in the rest of the $7.25/hr states.
>>529459074I quit going to Taco Bell years ago. They get rid of everything I like on the menu, and now they want way too much for everything that's left. They also have way too many "Hidden Menu Items" that they only put on the app that you don't know exist just looking at the menu at the restaurant. I don't like getting confused when I try to order in the drive-thru or in-line. I'll save my money and eat at home, you shitty ass company! Bring back to Volcano Sauce!
>>529459821Minimum wage in my state is only $11. The price at fast food places and especially sit-down restaurants has gone up way more than what wages have. I make about 6x minimum wage and still feel ripped off going to most fast food restaurants.
>>529460658$ was originally Ps, abbreviation for pesos. Writing two letters was annoying so they dropped the P eventually. All symbols get pillars inside so they don't get confused with the normal letters S, C, etc.
>>529460658The dollar came before the cent, and was based on Pesos (Ps). They would overlap the P and S. Eventually just dropped the loop on the P and kept the S and line.
>>529461058long winded way of saying "i mispoke and im wrong".Minimum means minimum, you didnt mean minimum wage then did you? Why is it so difficult for people to just be wrong sometimes. Its fine, really. I can even understand why you would think (pic attached) because of your location and your personal job experience. But what you said is fundamentally not true and I'm not going to sit here and pretend with you that i just "didn't get it".
>>529461573copity cope cope :)
>>529461058I live and work in a state that has the 7.25 minimum wage and you do see jobs as long as minimum wage. They exist, but most on average are around 10$ unless your doing tipped work which can go as low as 2 something a hour.you just misspoke when you said minimum wages were probably around 16-20$ and we all make mistakes from inside our little bubbles.I'm literally telling you as a person who lives in one of the 7.25 minimum wage states, there are jobs paying 7.25
>>529461330>>529461381Interesting. You learn something everyday
>>529459326>online exclusive>its a coupon in exchange for your personal info that taco bell will sell for $900 to literally anybody that offers. Youd rather do this than cook for like 5 minutes? You know how easy to make a crunch wrap? Make a fuckin burrito and put some smashed tortilla chips in it ffs. If you really want to recreate the taco bell effect you can even spit on it before wrapping it up.
>>529461629you literally misspoke, im starting to think you may of lied instead of just misspoke.
>>529459592That's the inside of a boob
>>529459074We let a bunch of faggots and women like Obama, Clinton, etc run the country and they fucked everything up.
>>529459074Yum Brands are a bunch of greedy likes and the entire country needs to boycott them for a solid month to protest this shit. Food costs have not increased. Wages have not increased substantially. Profits have increased.
>>529461898>>529461964doesn't matter if i misspoke, the majority of entry-level jobs in states with a $7.25/hr minimum wage are paying more than $7.25/hr. tipped and agricultural workers make less, but it's like that in every state.
>>529461952I've done all that shit just to realize I've could've ordered taco bell instead. And unless you're paying inside with cash they're still getting that data.
>>529462338ok, what your doing here is confusing minimum required with average or median, these are all different.Your original post, its factually inaccurate, incorrect, wrong, or a lie. I think lying about the minimum wage being higher than it is, is wrong.
>>529462603>id rather eat spitWe know, anon. My post was directed at straight men.
>>529462699ok cool. the majority of entry-level jobs in states with a $7.25/hr minimum wage are still paying more than $7.25/hr. hope this helps.
>>529459074Starting with boomers, men just kept simping and simping and then simping even more. Every man alive today is the result of inferior simp genetics.
>>529462834yea, all good, thanks man.Truth matters.
>>529462699I left a little redundant word string in this post for anyone who notices or cares. It's on purpose, deliberate and with a reason.
i think a lot of people who complain about food prices are blinded by nostalgia. here's a mcdonald's menu from the early 2000's, a time when minimum wage was $5/hr.
>>529463526ok but there is a issue.....Brother, i thought we just went through this on the opposite end and you understood.
>>529463817what you posted was the average wage for ALL civilian workers, where my previous posts were specifically referring to min-wage and entry level jobs. try to keep up okay.
>>529463526That pic is insanely disingenuous, the top and white circle prices are meal prices not the individual sandwiches. Half of the individual prices are missing.Sorry dude the $5 foot long was an actual thing. Also it's not perfect but burger king has deals sometimes. Got two double cheeseburgers for $5 and it actually felt like I wasn't getting hosed for once.
>>529464400.......
>>529463526One sausage burrito is $1 in this picture. They now cost like $3.25-$3.50 at McDonald's near my house. None of us are making X3.5 what we were making back when they were $1. I don't give a fuck what you say minimum wage was in any particular year. Restaurant prices are a fucking rip-off now and everyone but you can tell on an instinctual level.
>>529459074Has to be a way to go back.
>>529464819that doesn't disprove what i said lol. idk why you actually think minimum wage in 2000 was $15/hr lol.
>>529463526>>529464400
>>529464835do you think the cost for them to make the sausage burrito stayed the same over 20-25 years? genuine question.
>>529459074you got no power here eunuch troon
>>529465028brother, you are actually suffering from dunning Krugersee>>529465165
>>529460859
>>529460247You go to the hospital, they test you for every disease known to man so they can juice the bill. They also run pregnancy tests for all women post puberty just in case. And if you're on Medicare/Medicaid, they bill you for services you don't even consent to. Not illegals though. They don't pay.
>>529465165>>529465264now you're talking about inflation-adjusted median wages lol. just take the l my guy,
>>529465201The cost probably went down, considering improvements in meat processing and automation. Also they literally got rid of cashiers at McDonald's so the actual cost of ordering and making the meal is down.
>>529465361so that we can keep the data easier to understand than jumping from "entry level wages" which is news speak and not a thing, vs median, vs average, vs federal, vs state minimum.What your ultimately arguing is that food costs didnt inflate the way people are saying they did.But they did.Wages stagnatedcosts inflated.I used a simple easy to understand example to try to help you.>>529465165This is literally just trying to simplify this all for you, but I'm starting to think your disingenuous and don't care and just want the narrative that prices didnt go up to be true.
>>529459074the dow is still over $50k dollars tranny kike
>>529465514The same people who are telling you AI isn't going to kill jobs were the ones saying self checkout kiosks wouldn't kill jobs. Walmart or McDonald's cashier used to be a great first job for teenagers. Now it's a kiosk with an Español button.
>>529464930Just travel back in time like 20-25 yearsDon't go too far back or they won't have Baja Blast and that coin-drop game to win a free taco
>>529465514additives and cheaper fillers have kept costs lateral, prices for production have increased but at a much smaller rate than MSRP.Production costs are basically null compared to 25 years ago, about the same beyond some niche areas or things that couldnt be made more "effecient" with fillers, or corner cutting.
>>529465797ERRMMMMM ACTUALLLYYYYYlol
>>529459286Sometimes I think about how there are people who made that much money from a few months worth of work. Like the guy who made lethal company or the guy who made like $20 million from a fart app. It takes these celebs decades to earn that much while some random indie dev does it in 6 months
>>529465201I don't think it went up 350%!
>>529466087>>529466503
>>529465939America is richer than it’s ever been, and its wealth has practically doubled in the past 20 years but all of those gains have gone to the top 1%. People do not realize how insanely lavish the top parasites are currently living while everyone else suffers. They’re not even capable of imagining it. And it’s still not enough for them. Their greed is destroying the world.
Mutt slop then and now
>>529463526>a time when minimum wage was $5/hrYou can still eat something after an hour's work, you need 4 hours in Mexico to eat a Mickey D's combo.
>>529459074with jews you lose
>>529459592>Hospital service But Obama told me healthcare would become affordable
>>529459074I just made these at home tonight and each one was a fraction of that cost, and I used real beef not onions
>>529470077you didn't add onions? what kind of burger doesn't have onions??
>>529459222is this a Machinima of Oni's Konoko, with Shinatama's android body in the background ? :Ogreat game! <3before Bungie sold out... :(
>OP picok, so what's the symbolism behind the OP pic then ... ?That Ryan Gosling got his SHIT PUSHED IN back in '89 , ...... so that he could get fame & fortune in return down the way ??pack that MEAT inbetween those LAYERS, mmm YEAAH !!! >=D 3:).
>>529459074jews
>>529462046I see it
>>529459074Reminder: he has two different size eyes.
Dishonest politicians like Trump and the other two previous Bozos, everyone in Trumps office should be imprisoned not just for war crimes but blatant stupidity and betraying the voters.You mean come on I don't care if you give a shit about Arabs or not but US blew 2 schools up 40 kids dead. Seems almost like Jewish policy is to murder children.What's next are Jews going to murder American children and you'll be like "my little cousin got blown up by Jews, but Jews are the best gluck, gluck, gluck.
>>529459074>what went wrong?sysco. but to be more precise, >>529459222
>>529462603>I've done all thatSure you have, son. You bought all the ingredients, followed a video of the day, whipped it up, and then a week later the rest of your ingredients went bad because you sat on them.Just admit you can't cook. You can perform once like a monkey. You can't cook.
>>529474041You don't need to watch a vid. You can make the burritos in batch and freeze them. Would still rather order the $5.50 box than replicate again. Not a lot of money.
>>529459326that's fucked up
>>529461330>>529461381so why is it called dollar?
>>529461952Don't be dishonest, you can't replicate the same flavor. Every fast food place has unique flavors that you can only approximate at home. No one has ever shown being able to make a 1 to 1 replication. If they ever did they would commit suicide with two bullets to the back of the head.
