No, fast food has not increased in price in relation to peoples' pay. That's the problem with the modern economy. Rent and food and everything else have gone up way, way more than pay. It costs a larger percentage of your paycheck to pay for things. There's less left over.

Fast food value menus should have $2.50 sandwiches right now. There's no reason they can't do that. The 'Dollar Menu' is unreasonable. Big Macs and Whoppers will never again be a dollar, and sadly neither will even a plain small hamburger. But if there were a few 99 cent chicken sandwiches and cheeseburgers just 6 years ago, there should be $2.50 ones now. Not this "Just get the $15 meal because the sandwich alone is now $7" bullshit.
Or the "just download our bloatware spy app so you can qualify for a weekly BOGO or a $3 sandwich coupon" bullshit.

There's a reason people are avoiding fast food in droves these days. And according to analysts, the companies have no intention of bringing the prices down ever again. They did some 15% shit as a promotion but it's not going to last.
But as long as grown ass adults are still willing to pay those prices for that shit chemical garbage, they'll still serve it up.

the actual reason is that the US is diverging into having a class of poors that needs to be eating flour and cornmeal based diets and a class of workers that is properly hitched to international production that doesn't give a shit about dropping a couple of thousand on food every month, and trying to provide something that the poors can afford in expensive buildings using expensive employees is pointless.

You're one of the workers who looks down on "poors" and thinks they deserve less. Yet you're not wealthy. You're poor too. There's the 99% and the 1%. You're the 99%. So you want to feel superior to someone so you choose someone else in the same boat. Sad.

95% of all couples in Canadian commercials are now BMWF. Funny thing is that I'm certain there are now far more Indians in Canada then there are black people.

In general though, commercials are far too sterile and soulless these days. It's especially bad during October now that barely anyone even seems to acknowledge Halloween.

TLDR: Present sucks ass, future looks worse, people find peace in the past.

Past good, present bad, future worse. The same shit people have always said since forever.

People in marketing used to think they were building a portfolio and would eventually break into Hollywood. So they tried. Now people in marketing know they will spend their entire lives shilling shit to the few retards they can reach. Same thing with modern tv, video games, and even Hollywood.

I think about how people didn't have to lock their home at night and could leave their cars unlocked when they went anywhere. It's almost unbelievable to me that petty crime was so rare that you were seen as kind of odd if you locked your car while you went shopping or whatever. No one thought twice about doing it. We are so, so brutalized now and its taken a toll on our psyche.

ngl, I miss the early/min 00's shopping channels. late night shopping was kino because all the callers who called in were either prank callers or deranged elderly people saying whacky shit. That, and the hosts usually didn't want to be there shilling products late at night and would be weird and say crazy shit themselves.

I’m 46. My mom’s a literal boomer. I’m from the Midwest, a town of about 70,000. Petty crime has always been a thing and you’re insane if you think it’s non existent outside of “New York”. That’s absolutely ridiculous hyperbole. You’re wrong and just want to be mad and lash out because the fantasy world in your head you use to escape reality is unattainable. It’s unattainable, not because someone stole it from you, but because it never existed in the first place.

That’s a very common sentiment these btw by people on the right and left; that the world is the way it is because of some nefarious conspiracy by “those people over there and they owe me”. Shit sucks for a variety of complex reasons, one of which is people like you setting current times to a standard that is fantasy world to begin with. You’re more comfortable in anger than vulnerability so you engage in bad faith arguments and call people retards in the safety of anonymity.

It’s really a bitch way to be and it will only magnify your problems. I’m speaking from personal experience. If you’re young, you’re probably fairly normal and hopefully will grow up a little. If you are my age or older you really need to get your shit together.

Rose tinted glasses, the 90s were pozzed, they took control back in 1914. If you want evidence of jewry back then look no further than the fashion industry, why were models back then so weirdly thin? Because literal faggots took over the industry and hired models thay looked like the boys theyre attracted to. Clinton used a loophole from the 70s to force banks to give housing loans to niggers which culminated in the 07 housing/debt crisis, OJ got away with murder, Rodney King race riots set the stage for BLM and anti-white communists. Personal computers taking over to the point anybody with a brain like Ted could see the writing on the wall. Gulf war, GWB 'read my lips no new taxes'

Diana getting assassinated, Waco, Ruby Ridge, LGBT entering the mainstream, women begin entering the work place exponentially, reality TV replacing all forms of media. The only good things from the 90s were just riding the coattails of the 80s.

Jews are running the world since 1700s (at least), but it ramped up in the last decades. They are getting less subtle, maybe even their inheritors are worse at their "job". Think of 80-90s action movies, like Commando and Predator, jew producers and directors, it was never intended as a classical artpiece but it was fun and are still man-movies. You couldn't make them today, the soldiers would fellate each other while a paraplegic Predator with vitiligo and a killer buzzcut claps in tears.
Even then most of the film industry was jew front to back and yet there was effort and sometimes even soul involved.

No one seems to give a damn anymore

- Attractive people
- Mostly homogenous relevant to the country they're from
- Using warm colours (to sell the product, but also because that was the style of the time)
- Due to inflation, the prices of the time give it a fantastical quality
- Reminds you of an era when politics wasn't completely insane and media was actually good

Modern culture is so bleak that consumerist propaganda from the past is more aspirational.

Retarded pol shit aside America has been in a cultural decline since at least the 60s, which gets faster the further along it gets. The 90s were the last decade that were more good than bad.
