This kind of context?

$1 in 1938 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $21.77 today, an increase of $20.77 over 85 years. The dollar had an average inflation rate of 3.69% per year between 1938 and today, producing a cumulative price increase of 2,077.49%.

Minimum wage workers today have less purchasing power than they did in the Great Depression

I think some of you are conflating inflation and price increases. Inflation is the decrease in the value of money. Price increases are increases in the cost of commodities. I know that sounds a little pedantic, but while inflation can cause price increases, so can other things (things like taxes or monopolies). If the cost of living were locked to inflation, then yes, you’d see a 33% increase in the value of minimum wage. As an example, a 2 bedroom house was around $3900 in 1938. If you made minimum wage, then a house costs about 4 years’ worth of labor. It’s harder to get stats like that today because it varies so much by region… but I live in a pretty low cost-of-living state, and the median cost of a 2 bedroom house here is around $240k. Minimum wage today will earn you about $15k annually, meaning a house now costs 16 years’ worth of labor.

The only way to be certain is to walk around barefoot in the dark…if it exists, you’ll find it…

It’s also possible she doesn’t realize she’s missing the box… we had an older cat that started doing this… she would get all her feet in the box, squat and shit on the floor right next to the box, then try to bury it. Got her a bigger box with slightly higher sides (still low enough she could easily access), and it fixed the issue

“Well, well, well…if it isn’t the consequences of my actions”

Or…“ignoring or denying a changing climate has consequences like more fires, more floods, and invasive or dangerous species moving into areas they haven’t previously thrived” vibes.

Case in point: her husband exposed himself to two young women children while they were dating. She decided he was still marriage material. Absolute trash.

FTFY

When wanting to eliminate the Dept of Education is too woke…

These folks know that the middle class has been bled dry, and soon, the billionaires won’t have anyone left to exploit except the millionaires like him

Finally, a reality show idea I can get behind

Fact check: Biden falsely claims he was at Ground Zero 'the next day' after 9/11 (www.cnn.com)

He did it three times in a single speech last month – falsely claiming to have witnessed a bridge collapse in Pittsburgh in 2022 (he actually visited the site more than six hours after the collapse), falsely claiming his grandfather had died just days prior to his own birth at the same hospital (his paternal grandfather died...

Context is everything man…even if EVERYTHING you point out was a deliberate lie, entirely made up, for personal and political gain, it still pales in comparison to the dangerous lies being told daily by EITHER of the other 2 guys he’s likely to run against.

I’d almost rather they were all lies in this instance because keeping lies straight is a lot more cognitive burden than misremembering is…at least that would be evidence the lights were still on

This is awful and wrong and a violation of the human rights of the citizens of that country. Thankfully, we don’t let the government decide what people are allowed to wear here in the good ol US of A…doesnt matter how many conservatives’ feelings are hurt. Small government and all that…

Guess you didn’t catch the sarcasm dripping off that entire statement? I wasn’t even talking about our incarceration problem, I was referencing all the anti-trans and anti-drag legislation the conservative states have been passing. Literally, the “small government” idiots legislating what clothes people can wear in public…
