This from a column on couponing in the paper on downsizing of products.I guess he don't read the blog or he and the other airheads would know what's up.Here is his addition to the conversation
I like the 8 ounce sodas better than the 12 ounce cans.Companies are trying to makes us healthier,and that I do appreciate.So should you.
But the one thing I am frustrated with is that the 8 ounce can costs more than the 12 ounce.
Now I pay more for less ounces.
The stupid is strong with this one probably a conscientious voter too.There should be a law against being that stupid.More stupidity abounds but James really irked me.None of them seem upset that the sizes of products is going down but the cost isn't or even rising.It's called stealth inflation and it pisses me off very much.Sheep will be sheep I guess.I wish I could point them to this.
Inflation?Only if you look at food,water,gas,electricity and everything else.
Have you noticed that prices are going up rapidly? If so, you are certainly not alone. But Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen, the Obama administration and the mainstream media would have us believe that inflation is completely under control and exactly where it should be. Perhaps if the highly manipulated numbers that they quote us were real, everything would be fine. But of course the way that the inflation rate is calculated has been changed more than 20 times since the 1970s, and at this point it bears so little relation to reality that it is essentially meaningless. Anyone that has to regularly pay for food, water, gas, electricity or anything else knows that inflation is too high. In fact, if inflation was calculated the same way that it was back in 1980, the inflation rate would be close to 10 percent right now.
Whatever they can't get away with sneaking it by you goes up in price if they can sucker you the sizes go down or it gets watered down.
So yeah inflation is much worse than the sheep believe and it's gonna get worse much much worse.
At least James will have his 8 ounce sodas I wonder if he thought of just drinking 8 ounces out of the 12 ones and save a little coin.
Nah I don't think James thinks about much.
