Yesterday my husband was complaining that the bacon was now a 12 oz instead of 16 oz package.
I told him making items of less size was nothing new, he only noticed because he was the one cooking..
Increased food prices will cause people to eat less and not require scooters to get the mail, or x-ray machines at zoos. Get real.
how does someone say something like this and then tell others to "get real." i dont want to pay more for food because some people cant control themselves. aside from them, what about all the people that cant afford food and all the people that taxpayers are feeding? i dont to pay more for all of that.

Easy, it's called reality. I posted the links for the proof what I am saying is true. I don't want to pay more either, but if everyone got a nickel every time they wanted something to be true...the Earth would likely be covered by several miles of nickels.

So yeah, get real. Too many people eat too much and we all pay the price.
Sometimes what's real isn't so nice, and we need to be adult enough to face facts instead of crying it's not nice and ignoring it.
im not even sure what you are talking about when you refer to "reality." im not going to be happy to pay more because certain people who think they are smarter than they are want to assume that raising the cost of money will force people to eat less and create a healthier society.
whether or not food gets more or less expensive is a reality we will deal with. but to cheer higher prices for the theoretical potential health benefits is ridiculous.

I said I was smarter than you? Where?
I don't think I am, but I certainly have more integrity then to put words into other people's mouths and chastise them for it.

I didn't say you said you are smarter than I am. I am making my judgment that you think you are smarter than you really are. i took that from your position of being in favor of higher food prices because it will be good for the health of americans. i figure this is your thought process "while most people think higher food prices is bad, i know better than they do."

You are still making all sorts of assumptions, from what I am thinking...some one you never met, or even know my first name, thinking you have some insight into my mind no one else has...to figuring you know what most Americans think without asking just because, well, you say so. Instead of addressing what I am saying, you are addressing this fiction of what you assume I am thinking and the assumption about what I am feeling.
I can't, and I won't, defend what you are projecting onto me because it's not me. Your judgement is massively flawed because it is based on what you claim I am thinking behind my words, not what I am actually saying. If you somehow knowing what is in my mind is your only argument against my opinion, we are done because I don't debate claims of psychic powers.
