A lot of things are cheaper today than they have ever been.>The average 19-inch color TV back then would run you upwards of $350,which when adjusted for inflation, costs roughly $3,300 in 2026 bills and coins. In 2026, a typical 55-inch 4K TV at Best Buy may only run you as little as$300https://www.bgr.com/2288803/how-much-would-it-cost-to-buy-tv-1966-vs-2026/
people can't eat TVs
>>544701580If hamburger gets any more expensive we're just gonna eat the jews
>>544701580I remember having a TV... it was a little GE portable. I had to fix it three times, had to keep replace a transistor. Back when I had a brain and no money... Cost me $300. Big investment. Mind you a semester at uni cost $100 fees and $100 books.
>>544701761>If hamburger gets any more expensive we're just gonna eat the jewsYou'll get worms if you eat jews.
>>544701580You're forgetting something.So I've done a lot of research over the years. Luxuries like TV's were incredibly expensive, sure. But regular life stuff like food, rent, or even houses were considerably cheaper based on inflation As an example, the house I live in now probably cost 25000 when it was built in 1970. Now that house costs 400k. Adjusting for inflation alone, my house should only be worth around 200k.
>>544701580The model T ford originally cost $850, but the end of its production it cost $260Things are supposed to get cheaper the more you make of them.Checkmate atheists.
>>544701720>>544701761A pound of ground beef is $7, you can make 4 burgers with that. Working your minimum wage job at Arby's you can afford 8 meals with one hour of work. Don't be so ignorant next time you post
A television is a surveillance tool and state-propaganda-delivery device, that’s the only reason it’s cheap
>>544701580>STOP IMPLYING TRUMP IS DOING A BAD JOBlol
>>544701580>cost of living isnt going up, its just a minimum wage job would takes 4 times longer to pay for one basic source of entertainment
>>544701940>I can eat 40 meat patties per week on my minimum wage salaryWithout a bun? Without a plate? Without any way to cook the meat patties? It’s just raw meat.
>>544701940ok retard
>>544701580>look, TVs are cheaper now than 60+yrs ago>pls stop complaining about our… I mean the govt’s failures
>OP lives in a TVCool.
>>544701580>look guys i found 1 thing that's cheaper than it used to bei bet asbestos is pretty cheap too
>>544701580jews want you to have a tv for a reason
>>544701580buy a smart tv goy so i can monitor you
>>544701580Cool story. Now do houses.
>>544702050>Without a bun? Without a plate? Without any way to cook the meat patties?those are negligible costs and you're being intentionally obtuse because you can't cook for shit blame your absent father and your whore of a mother for that, btw
>>544701580>THERE'S NO INFLATION!>SEE HOW CHEAP THESE TVS ARE!?!?!Yet another argument that puts a cap on the maximum intelligence of MIGA livestock.Yes Virginia, people have been talking about TVs being extremely cheap for a decade or more.Inflation is a measured statistic and you are trying to deny reality because it shows how badly Trump has fucked everything up.
>a handful of pepper would run you upwards of $20,000 back in the day, so you cant complain
>>544701580luxuries get cheaper but necessities get more epxensive
>>544702201Curious. You count on your mom and dad for all of those amenities you say are so cheap
>>544701580What pollsters and political talking heads and the various cocksucking retards running for office can't seem to (or can't publicly) address is that there's simply a general malaise gripping the entire country. It's causes are many. And even if they aren't in a bad mood 100% of the time, no one likes anything going on and everyone is unhappy. Add high fuel prices on top of that and pretty much no current party would have a chance of holding onto what they have.
>>544701580The cost of an appliance is very infrequently and is not considered part of the cost of living. Please focus your attention on the cost of rent and groceries.
>>544701580My groceries cost me $423 this week. House of 5 in Seattle. Mortgage is $9000. This was a cheap house. Water is $450 every 2 weeks. Electric is $170 trash is $130, insurance medical is $5k a year. Car Ins is $2k /y house Insurance is $5k a yrOh but good, the worst lowest contrast shitty version of an LCD with bad refresh rate that I only need to buy once every 10 years or so is cheaper.Don’t look at buying a PC though. That’s like buying a used car. And don’t even bring up cars omg.
Now convert heroin or acid.
>>544701580The average tv is chink dog shit.
>>544702279>reason #9001 why I just HAVE TO order Uber Eats, okay?
>>544702348Shit. Utilities here are 200 bucks a month. You are getting reamed up there.
>>544701580>Life better now because cheap TV and iPhone and computer Gaslight fatigue
>>544701955>A television is a surveillance tool and state-propaganda-delivery device, that’s the only reason it’s cheapthis
>>544701936An Edward Current reference?
>>544702372all the backlights fallout after a few years, leaving the white spots
>>544701940In 1993 I had a minimum wage job at Arby's. I was paid about one ounce of silver every hour. Today, I have to charge my customers $70/hour to enjoy the same wage I did as a 16 year old at Arby's.
>doesn't know how to make a fireThis nigga >>544702050 is NGMI
>>544701580In other words, the price never went down.
>>544701580Buy a high mid range tv today it'll cost you $1000. But the TV was created over seas using low pay workers. Over in the west it'll cost $3000 of we made them.
>>544703132Older TVs also didn't support Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, had no HDR, no HDMI, didn't support 7.1 digital surround with Sonos integration, they were smaller in viewing size, but bigger in actual size and weight, worse color accuracy, worse power consumption, and shot X rays at your face.
>>544701887Also on top of that smaller black and whites were $50.Then a few years later in 1970 large black and white TVs were $50, and color TV were $120.It's weird that selecting a super specific year has unusual prices, its like pricing an iPhone vs. 2007...
>>544702348>9000 for a fucking mortgageWhat the fuck? Did you put down like 5% on a 2 million dollar home?
>>544701580You only have to buy a tv once. Products have gotten cheaper. But the things you need to buy constantly, rent, food, electricity, have gone through the roof.
>>544701580high influx of taxation defrauding and interest rates
>>544701580TV's are one of the few products that are cheaper now because they're literal brain washing AND spying machines. You get the two for the prize of one.
>>544701580THE GOYBOX IS CHEAPER
>>544701720Food costs relative to income are still pretty close to, if not at, their historic low.Its up slightly relative to recent history on this graph but if you pay attention you'll notice people are eating out more, which is significantly more expensive.Housing is kinda fucked though aside from rates mostly being very low in recent decades.
>TV costs $300 That people DON'T HAVE you fucking RETARD
>>544701807Hi generation x boomer here.As a kid it kind of pissed me off that the rich kid in school had his own TV in his room, not only that they had a small one in the kitchen they could watch. He also had one of those new fangled things called calculators.
>>544701580Now do a gallon of milk, a loaf of bread, maybe a carton of eggs.
>>544701580The reason why TVs are cheap now is because they spy on you. Will literally record everything you say and send it back to company. You don't even own the TV anymore.
>>544701580>the prices are fine, stop complaining about undue taxation!The government hides part of your earnings they steal from you by calling it "payroll tax."
>>544703561>defraudingI'm thinking of shilling for Israel to fund my Project Helix purchase. Maybe I'll spare myself some dignity and go for the PS6, we'll see how it goes.
>>544701580Right because the technology completely changed. Old tvs are a shit ton of expensive curved glass and the internals were also expensive. TV repair man used to be a trade because you bought one and kept it for 10 to 15 years. TVs are cheap plastic a motherboard and the screen projection is no longer glass. There are a couple of different options and ways to do it but they are all fraction of the cost to produce compared to what was going on before.But OP already knew this. He is just a rightoid kike shill and he purposely zoned in on this one product because he thinks he's clever but he's actually a retard. Couldn't even subvert the 10 year to come into his van for candy. Total loser and probably jewish.
If you don't know what this is or have never used one, you're a faggot.
In 1966 black and white tv's were still very popular and most were under 19".
>>544703876
>>544701580Yes, tech got cheaper and everything else, especially necessities, have gotten much more expensive
>>544701580if I knew what I know now I would never for a tv to enter into my home. I would make sure every book I read wasnt filled with joo fairy tells and any movies I watch would not be of joos lies and trickery. its too late they are everywhere and in everything you touch read or watch
>>544701580But those TV they still work today, not like modern TV that after 3 years die
>>544701580>>The average 19-inch color TV back then would run you upwards of $350,which when adjusted for inflation, costs roughly $3,300 in 2026 bills and coins. In 2026, a typical 55-inch 4K TV at Best Buy may only run you as little as$300Can I trade cheap TV's to get cheap houses instead please? I don't fit inside of a TV
>>544701720Everyone already has a tv. Black Friday sales on meat and vegetables.
>>544701580>using official inflation calculationsBoomerslop thread
>>544704005Nope. The tunes burnout. It's very common. It takes a long ass time but the part that does the actual projection is the number one reason these need to be replaced or repaired.
>>544704085Tubes*Didn't mean to make the TV sound like a jukebox.
>>544703869No one knows what that 2,600 year old things is gramps.
>cost of living>televisionWhat did he mean by this
>>544703965Not really. Housing has, which is major, but most other things havent. If you arent comparing price to wage growth under inflationary currency, you are doing it wrong.
>>544701580a tv costs less than a steak how is this an improvement. it seems as if were all turned into robots. slowly but surely.
>>544701580joo box should not be allowed into your home its how they brainwash you and your kids
>>544701940now think how many burgers can you make from a jew? And its free!
>>544701580A top of the line TV is still $3300.
>>544704212Some of them are 2,600 years old, others are 5,600 years old.
>>544701580Fake inflation numbers start to add up after a few decades.https://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/inflation-chartsJews gonna jew (shabbos goys too), but NAFTA and unlimited immigration made it 10x worse.
>>5447044385,200*, see so old I couldn't even get the year count right
>>544704275Yes really nigger the currency has lost its real value. Housing especially. It turns out people need housing every day too.
>>544701580Wait but that means consumer electronics have been in a deflationary state for decades...Didn't MMT theorists tell us that deflation kills economies??? Because nobody will buy anything because it'll be cheaper to wait??? Surely by their logic the consumer electronics industry died many years ago due to deflation????????????
>>544701580>color>19”Nigga get apples to apples. That was the top end tech for the day. You might want to compare that to a microled 86” 8k tv with AI if you want to make that statement
>>544701580Now do a loaf of bread.
>>544701580>wtf my telescreen is cheaper than your television i bet u feel retardedgood goygeorge orwell thought u'd be forced to have them but not only do u willingly have one, u bought it too
>>544703869thats from Pong I believe, or maybe a TI/99 I had both and remember this
>>544701580The average home price in 1966 was about $20,000
>>544701580Cool too bad pay doesn't rise accordingly. Kill yourself migger.
Brand new state of the art tech costs more when new.A more realistic comparison would be automobiles.Automobile manufacturers have less secure unions, more automation instead of thousands on assembly lines, more modular parts not the custom hand made curvy bodies, yet a vehicle costs more today.
Sure, but I didn't relly need a TV because I could just go outside into a beautiful world full of white people, social cohesion and a generally positive societal outlook.
>>544704531All currency value changes, especially fiat currency, but even if it was pegged to a hard asset like gold that still changes in value. Having the currency go completely tits up is a possibility but it hasnt happened, even with recent mass printing and hacks taken at the petrodollar. I know you all want to blame your troubles on something external, but this is still a better economy than '08, or the 80s. American consumer spending as a share of GDP has increased exponentially decade over decade no matter how bad people perceive the economy to be. Right now you are buying more stupid garbage bullshit than any other population in the world in all of history.
>>544701580Nice boomerjewniggerwhore, now lets do houses
>>544701580A 1966 color TV lasted for half a century You'd be lucky to make a $300 TV from Best Buy last half a decade
>>544702406Please ignore that retard and let him suffer. He doesn’t represent all Americans but he does represent a frightening amount of Millennials and younger.
>>544701720It's honestly pretty cheap to eat if you cook at home. Got to avoid beef and MOST non-staple vegetables though.Cooking at home cost less than $100 a month per adult. I'm talking eating good too not barely getting by. Soup, chicken and rice, lasagna, hell most anything involving bread and pasta.It absolutely takes time though if you are going to maximize savings. Anyone claiming "It's quick and easy" is full of shit. Easy? Yes. Quick? Nope. Having your workflow and planning down to an art will still cost you time, so you have to plan that shit in advance. People who live alone working 16 hour days are pretty much fucked when it comes to making home meals. Honestly, it's MUCH cheaper to live if you are married and the spouse doesn't have a job to focus on home maintenance and meal prep. It's one of the things that bother me about two income households, especially when the wife almost invariably makes purchases out of her income range (newer car for example). The amount of cash wasted by having a second income is pretty batshit.
>>544701580But people don't buy TVs every month, they pay rent
>>544702348I find it funny that the used car I bought in 2019, a Toyota Corolla 2010, is now "worth" 3x as much as when I bought it. Inflation is insane.
>>544701580I don't want to own a TV
>>544701580A fast food worker has to work two and a half hours to afford a meal where he works.When I was young, it was 30 minutes.
>>544701580now do houses and cars
TVs are the only thing that is cheaper and that is so they can brainwash and spy on you. If you wanted to buy a CRT it would be more expensive but they don't exist anymore.
>>544701720The fuck they can't! - Michel Lotito
>>544701580How is this lie still being repeated? does anyone honestly believe this?
>>544701580Back in the day most places would also do hire-purchase. So you paid smaller instalments over so many months and you owned it in the end.
majority of LG's tv division profits aren't from selling tvs it's from selling your data like they say >we own the glassthat's why it's "cheap"
>>544701720"Let them eat free TV's" ~Dr. Neil Breen
TVs are cheap because they are deprecated technology, just like radios and books. We have this thing called the internet.
>>544701580>A lot of things are cheaper today than they have ever been.Except for:1. Housing2. FOOD3. Energy4. Taxes5. Insurance6. Medical7. AppliancesJackass
>>544701580>In 1966, televisions were expensive primarily because color CRT tubes and internal vacuum tube circuits required complex hand-assembly, while heavy wooden console cabinets made each set function as a major piece of living room furniture rather than mass-produced electronics
>>544701887Food was most certainly not cheaper back then. Housing may have been less expensive but the cost of everything else more than made up for it. in the 50s and 60s poorfags still grew their own vegetables since EBT and section 8 didnt exist yet. There were also still large parts of America without electricity or indoor plumbing.
>>544701580I'd rather have giant screen tvs and 1gb internet and higher priced homes. You can endlessly cope about better times but pirating content at 100mb/s is amazing
>>544701580Now, what about food?
>>544704873Not relative to salaries. A basic sedan is still about a years median wage. Modern cars also last much longer than they used to no matter what incestuous rednecks and boomers who are too retarded to learn what an injector map is say to the contrary. Any car made in the last 35 years will make it to about 300,000 miles with routine maintenance. Cars made back in the carburetor days would rarely make it to 100,000 miles. They only had 5 digit odometers because they did not expect the car to last long enough to reach six figure mileage. Rust proofing was also much worse than it is today so unless you lived in the south your car would be a rusty mess in a few years. They also required much more frequent maintenance and used a lot more gas which cost about the same as it does now adjusted for inflation.
>>544710350Food bills today are about half of what they were in the 60s and foodstamps didn't exist back then.
>>544701580You can go to the store and buy like 2 or 3 TVs if you wanted to. I call them tv stores now. I wouldn't be surprised if they start selling them at grocery stores sooner or later. Maybe instead of groceries.
>>544704962>A 1966 color TV lasted for half a centuryNo it didn't.
>>544701580Can't eat a TV but you van live in the box.
>>544710678>Cars made back in the carburetor days would rarely make it to 100,000 miles. They only had 5 digit odometers because they did not expect the car to last long enough to reach six figure mileageTo be fair that was partially because oil and air filters were not as good in the 50s; the same engines would last a lot longer with modern oil and filters.
>>544701761Eat the rich. Isreal.is bad Jews are fine.
>>544701580Some of the cost will be eaten by the tv spying on you to redirect political and other advertisements.
And to be quite honest my grandparents complained about their cost of living in the 50s-60s. My grandfather didn't buy his first new car until he was 42 years old, and it was an AMC which was the 60s version of a Hyundai.
>>544701580>paying money for a digital surveillance device that’s always listening is considered a luxury these daysThere’s a reason why they’re so cheap
back then it wasn't a goyim programming device quiet like it is now, so it was worth far more
>>544710776Don't also forget the enormously bigger variety of food you can buy in a store now.
>>544701580bro everyone knows this trick. the typical "basket" that is used to calculate inflation already includes a lot of tech that is always falling in price.true inflation is much higher.20 year olds have to pay 50% of their income for a single room cage, how many tvs do you think i can fit into this one room? and why whould i buy a new one every year?
>>544703741Silent gen here. I'm still pissed about the time the milk man who lived down the street thought he was too good for horses so he bought a car.SLOPPY JALOPY!
>>544710944Lmao, I restore old radios and TVs as a hobby. Electronics were definitely not made better back then. Resistors were made of cement and capacitors were literal rolls of wax paper and aluminum foil. Wires had cloth insulation.>>544711038The oil itself wasn't good either and machining tech wasn't as good. Quality was also much less consistent. I work in auto manufacturing, literally every single part of the process has gradually improved since the model t and it compounds over time. >>544711130Model T and A fords were a common sight until the 1970s because they were cheap, easy to keep running and extremely abundant so poor country bumpkins and highschool kids just kept using them. >>544711186lmao what? TV is the reason boomers turned out the way they did.>>544711249Exactly, plus you can get fresh strawberries in the winter time. Back then you could only eat what was in season. Hell, you dont even need to go to a store. Imagine telling someone from the 1960s you can have any obscure tropical fruit from anywhere on earth shipped to your door in a couple days by ordering it on your smartphone.
>>544711357>Exactly, plus you can get fresh strawberries in the winter time. Back then you could only eat what was in season. Hell, you dont even need to go to a store. Imagine telling someone from the 1960s you can have any obscure tropical fruit from anywhere on earth shipped to your door in a couple days by ordering it on your smartphone.To be fair the 50s in of itself saw a huge jump in food availability since it was the first era where tropical fruits were widely available thanks to refrigeration. Most Americans in the 1920s had never seen an orange unless they lived in SoCal or Florida.
>>544701580>easily dismiss your argument by uttering Moore's LawKill yourself being a retarded faggot
>>544702308These people are paid to post here.The people paying them have historically always made the "let them eat cake" error.
>>544711186Yes it was. Probably even worse in the 60s. Newton Minow, Kennedy's FCC chairman said network TV was just one huge wasteland.
my fiancee just took our son to McDonald's. a large fry was $5.99. i am ready for blood. people are going to start dying.
>wow these goy retards will PAY US for propaganda>if we make it slightly cheaper these retards will put a propaganda box in every room of their house
>>544711357Back then it was common to buy a new car with any of the following:>misaligned body panels>dents>rust spots>engine has no oil in it>incorrect or missing trim pieces>occasionally even the wrong engine from what you orderedBoomers on AACA Forum have some real horror stories about 60s-70s cars.
>>544711697McDonald's is disgusting now, go to Five Guys or Culvers. It costs the same but you get better food and more of it.
>>544710776you just blatantly fucking lie? not even a believable lie. i'm going to smash your head in with a fucking hammer and my son is going to watch. he's going to learn what happens when it stops being "good people stand by and do nothing".
>>544701580You only buy a TV once in five to ten years. You buy food and fuel every day. You're a moron.
>>544701580>goyslop tvbox: CHEAP>necessary goods: GET FUCKED
Want to hear music back then? Buy a $8 vinyl album that would cost over $40 in today's money.
>>544702348>Water is $450 every 2 weeksBullshit
>>544711835Anyone who thinks cars were better in the past is a fucking idiot or a boomer with rose tinted glasses. I knew some old firefighters and cops who worked back then, car accidents were absolutely gruesome. My nextdoor neighbor knows what a woman burning to death inside a vw beetle sounds like. The only thing more dangerous to drive than a classic car is a small classic car. Do not buy a subcompact made before the 2000s, they are deadly.>>544712071or an AM only transistor pocket radio with a shitty mono earbud that cost as much as the latest iPhone pro max does today.
>>544710678>Modern cars also last much longer than they used to>>544711038>the same engines would last a lot longer>>544711357ey bros, our roads here are still full of commie 2 stroke bikes from ages ago. africa is also full of old shit with over a million miles down.im not going to go too deep into engineering here, but the more complexity you add to a system the faster it goes down the shitter, this is a statistics problem actually, not even engineering.modern trash cars will probably refuse to start because the automatic rain detection isnt working or some shit like that.the general rule is that motors with the same volume last longer the less powerful they are, this is also in juxtaposition to modern cars that squeeze every little bit of power out. as a downside old motors eat more fuel and oil
>>544703851What you say is correct, but I can give better examples.Video games have largely stayed the same or gone down. Even if you want to argue that blurays are much cheaper than cartridges (which they are), the amount of general inflation more than accounts for it.
>>544703869I *barely* used that shit, very young, late 80s
>>544711860>>544703676
>>544701580Wow. I'm so much better off now.I can afford to buy a brand new TV every week.Said nobody ever.
All the way to the 90s it was nearly expected that most cars would spend a good deal of time in the shop because there was always something breaking on them.
>>544712572>checks flagYou haven't been well off since the ccp took over running the place.
>>544701580No, they are not, you liar!Those TVs weren't made using trash tier recycled black plastics filled with toxic carcinogens that destroy male virility. Those TVs were made in America by people with work ethics who were proud of their trade.
>>544701580the TV from 1966 didn't spy on you
>>544705319It’s jamjeets increasing demand and therefore prices go up
>>544701833nah you get AIDS
>>544701580>2026>buying a TVSeriously? How old are you? 100?
>>544701887When talking about houses you have to factor in the development of the area. You cant just multiply by inflation and call it a day. If your grandparents bought that shit when it was almost barrenland, or too fat away from shit but then a real city was developed, then yes, it will cost more than just multiplying by inflation. There are a dozen of things to consider. Id say talking about food makes a more clear idea.
>>544701580Why don't you suck these nuts pal? Do it for free and I'll write an article about how inflation is cooling instead of telling gen alpha that boomers heads are basically piggybanks.
>>544702719>I was paid about one ounce of silver every hour.No, you weren't. You were paid like $4 in federal reserve notes every hour. No one was paying you in silver for the same reason that you didn't immediately go out and convert those $4 worth of FRNs into silver, which is also the reason why the spot price of silver in 1993 was about ~$4/oz. Silver was around the all time lows then when adjusted for inflation. Silver was extremely cheap relative to the value of the dollar because no one wanted silver in 1993, they wanted dollars. And if Arbys had actually tried to pay you in silver in 1993, 16 year old (You) would have been furious and insisted that they pay you in real money instead.
>>544703708yea I'm lucky if I got $25 left at the end of the month
>>544712365>flagyou are the last person to lecture anyone about car reliability klaus. Africans keep their cars that long because they are dirt ass poor so they have no choice but to keep patching them up cuban style. Oh, and the trabants designers were so retarded they only put a freewheel on 4th gear so if you try to coast in gear the engine will seize on you and the body panels are made of shredded russian pants.
This is a 50s house. It's a tiny shoebox made with sketchy building standards. They who complain about inflation of housing prices fail to realize that the standards for houses are a lot higher now.
>>544712928Nobody will admit it but a big part of the affordability problem is that everyone wants the 21st century upper middle class lifestyle working at a shitty warehouse job.
I have a 1974 Sony that still works, sure it was expensive new but now new TV no matter how much will last over 50 years. It was the first one Sony made with a remote- 17 inch tube but it weighs over 50lb in a real wood cabinet.
The other thing was back then you could hire your buddy Fred who used to be an electrician at a Navy shipyard during the war to install a sketchy home electrical system that would never pass code today.
>>544713003no new TV will last that long I meant to write. One of my better craigslist finds too, just 20 bux
>>544713003I had that same TV as a kid and played my NES on that shit, Mike Tyson Punch Out
Also yes, health care. 50s cars were terribly unsafe, but in an accident you also just generally had a lower chance of survival because trauma care was so much less advanced. Cancer couldn't be treated and the first high blood pressure drugs didn't arrive until the 60s. Heart attacks and strokes in middle age were much more common back then. Eisenhower received what was then an experimental heart bypass procedure in 1955 and the doctors when learning who the patient was (initially told it was "a retired Army general") were worried about operating on him as they didn't know if it would actually work and not kill him.
>>544701580TVs are loss leaders for corpos, brainlet.
>>544712893>you are the last person to lecture anyone about car reliability klausGerman cars an an example of the Keep It Simple, Stupid philosophy. They're perfectly solid in Europe, it's just that USDM models have all the high trim levels and gadgets that add failure points. If we could get a taxi trim diesel Audi here we'd have a different take on them.
>>544714128Cope. The same is true of Lexus and they are extremely reliable.
>intentionally irritating approval of jewed economypajeet thread
>>544714803>APUDon't even mention that motherfucker - the way they jeeted the voice actor shows what they've taken from us in this Iron Age of Zombie Simpsons.
>>544712842I do get that you're trying to be objective but development is inherently a relative measurement, beyond his anecdotal experience when comparing against the mean or median this anon is still largely correct, housing prices here are ridiculous and it is a core concern for literally everyone who doesn't own one.
>>544711052No jew. It's all of you, which means it's going to be all of you.
>>544701955checked
>>544701580Is there a demand for TVs? I thought most people would stream on computers, tablets, and even their phones.
>>544701955this
>>544701940>but I have no choice but to order my free range artisan burger with garlic aoili fries from doordash for $30
>>544701940Thanks for the reminder, Fren. I will be getting 80/20 and a pack of buns in the morning. God damn I love the USA.
>>544702348>Water is $450 every 2 weeksYou're supposed to turn the tap off when you're done with it.
>>544701580its true. I was watching some old compusa videos on youtube yesterday. monitors were like 800 bucks back then.
>>544717789>monitors were like 800 bucks back then.Based. It kept the retarded nigger cattle offline. Now screens are dirt cheap and every mouth breathing retard is online, isn't it wonderful?
>>544705176InstantPot - rice, some meat and vegetables, you can make good tasting good cheap ingredients relatively healthy. Its also pretty quick.
>>544701580yeah because they spy on what you watch and sell your data to make up for them being cheaper
>>544701580This is actually exactly why boomers don't understand the cost of living complaints of younger generations. their ENTIRE fucking world revolves around television and has their entire life. And for most of their life, how big and fancy your TV was was a big indicator of how successful you were as a person. They would get in first fights on black Friday to get the limited TV deals. So when they see some 55 inch TCL TV at Walmart for $200, they immediately dismiss all complaints made by younger generations who don't know how good they have it. Nevermind the extreme cost of housing, cars, food, health care, energy and everything else that is actually crucial in life, goyboxes are cheap therefore life is cheap.
>>544701580>A lot of things are cheaper today than they have ever been.Nothing important is.The more you need it, the more expensive it is. Homes, rents, gasoline, diesel, steak - all far cheaper in 1950 compared to now. The CPI/inflation basket keeps changing. Also, they used to call durable goods durable goods because a refrigerator would last 30 years no problem and be completely rebuildable at any point for reasonable prices. Now they are designed to fail and be unrepairable. The basket of goods they use to calculate inflation changes constantly. Most things are 10x more expensive now than then.The jews did this, they need to be destroyed.
>>544701580Back then everyone earned 10k/month "adjusted for inflation" working in a supermarket you dumb faggot.Also I can't eat a 55-inch flatscreen goybox.
>>544701580considering /tv/ in 1966 was just as jewish as now and the picture quality sucked ass, i'd rather play stickball in the yard or get sent to vietnam
>>544701580> Globohomo brainwashing platforms are easily accessibleThis just proves how rigged the market is.
>>544701580Now do housing prices. : ) >>544703676I don't trust this data.A lot of it comes down to what they classify as food and from which vendor.
>>544701580I'm 52 years old, my first tv i bought myself was a 19 inch zenith tv tgat cost me over $400, about 1 weeks income back in 1993. Now I literally have flat screen tvs between 42 and 60 inches in my storage room I've bought on clearance from local stores going out of business for as little as $35. All are brand new still in the boxes. I dunno what I'm gonna do with them, in all honesty. They were just impulse buys.
>>544712689expat from the UK.Much better off here now I'm not paying 45% income tax.
>>544712465All that graph says is people are buying less, not spending less. Keeping mind the left side of the graph is for families of 6 with one income while the right side is single people and very small families with two or more incomes.
>>544719160Gets old fast eating one pot instapot fare, but it's fine if you are the kind of person who just views meals as a source of energy and little else. That was me in my single life for many years. Even then, dropping a bunch of shit in a slow cooker before heading off to work for a pork roast and veg sitting at home was pretty common. Unfortunately I went through six years of only being able to afford chicken leg quarters for protein and I can't stand chicken in any capacity anymore.
>>544701580But everybody had one in every room because minimum wage was $400 an hour.
>>544704901>better economy than '08, or the 80s. American consumer spending as a share of GDP has increased exponentially decade over decadeFor you jews, yes, it's great.
>>544704901>Right now you are buying more stupid garbage bullshit than any other population in the world in all of history.That's because the necessities are no longer attainable.No house.No kids.No wife.
