milwaukee mike Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 why should the government have ANYTHING to do with providing baby formula? somehow the dumbasses in this country think it's a good idea to take a shitload of planes overseas to buy formula and bring it back as if we just have a shitload of planes, pilots, etc just sitting around waiting to do that when the same incompetent, corrupt people that created these crisis (fauci, us govt, pfizer, etc) say they are going to fix them, we should run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKolzig Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Consumers have actually been shielded so far from the full brunt of soaring expenses that are facing producers, distributors and small businesses like restaurants. But they can only hold back for so much longer. Take the case of Jeff Good, who co-founded three restaurants in Jackson, Mississippi. Around 18 months ago, a 40-pound box of chicken wings cost him about $85. Now, it can go as high as roughly $150. Expenses for cooking oil and flour have nearly doubled in the past five months, he said. But it’s not just ingredient prices going up. He’s paying more for labor and services, too. Even the company that maintains his air conditioners has tacked on a $40 fuel charge per visit. To cope, he’s raised menu prices. A 15-piece order of chicken wings, a signature dish at his Sal and Mookie’s pizzeria, went for $13.95 before Covid hit. Now, wing costs can vary so much they’re labeled at “market price,” like some restaurants do with lobster. At peaks, the menu price can be be about $27.95 — but that represents a barely-there margin — and Good estimates the “real cost” is closer to about $34. He’s trying to decide whether to keep raising prices or take wings off the menu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey AOL, No reporting on Michael Sussmann, Hillary's Campaign Attorney, on trial for lying to the FBI about Russian Collusion? Trial started yesteday..... When Col. Flynn was on trial, there was multiple articles every day leading up to the trial and during the trial. CNN has a blip, as does the NY Times, CBS, even MSNBC but no contributors from AOL? John Bull Durham's star witness was a bust. This indictment after 3 years is a farce and injustice. M. Sussman is an innocent victim of Republicon scum John Bull Durham.

Day drinking is better in general. Everybody is fresher, it's more fun and lively, brighter outside, better weather, and overall more social. Night drinking at the restaurant/bar is college stuff.
