Our Standard Of Living Is Collapsing And 25 Percent Of U.S. Households Are Skipping Meals So They Will Have Enough Money To Pay Their Bills

Excerpt below from full article above.

[Earlier today, I came across a shocking new survey which discovered that 25 percent of U.S. households are skipping meals so that they will have enough money to pay their bills…

Twenty-five percent of respondents say they or someone in their household has skipped meals to save money in the past year—numbers that rose to nearly 4 in 10 for Hispanics (41 percent) and nearly 3 in 10 for Blacks (29 percent). The youngest Americans surveyed, ages 18–34, are by far the most likely to have skipped meals to pay bills (38 percent), and rates were similarly high for those in households with income below $50,000 per year (39 percent).
25 percent of the country doesn’t have enough food to eat!

How can you possibly spin that number to make it look good?
Let’s get real.

In June, the average price of a pound of ground beef actually surpassed the six dollar mark…
The average price for a pound of ground beef in the Northeast rose to more than $6.05 in June, according to the latest figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That’s a high point in records dating back to 2015.

The price was up more than 10% from June 2024 and more than 3.4% from May. The price jump for beef from May was the biggest among a group of common grocery items that also included eggs, chicken, milk, bread and butter.

When I was growing up, my mother was constantly feeding us ground beef.
Now it has become a “luxury meat” that most Americans cannot afford on a regular basis.
If you can’t see that our standard of living is declining, I don’t know what to tell you.]
