Why are people not asking-why the hell our Govts borrow OUR money AT INTEREST from private for-profit corporations that are not part of our Govts and as such, are not accountable to ANYONE :x :x :x
WAKE THE HELL UP YOU MORONS IN FRONT OF YOUR TV, TURN THAT FOOTBALL GAME OFF AND START USING COMMON SENSE! :x

1. Ordering a meatball sandwich at this one place. I am used to getting three huge meatballs on a sandwich that will also be lunch for tomorrow. Instead, I got this tiny sandwich with three of the smallest meatballs I ever saw. The price was the same, though.
2. A bag of chips costs $3.99 now, and it used to cost $2.99. The volume went from over 14 oz (remember over 16oz?) down to 11 oz. Again, paying more for less, so I have to shell out much more now.
I know, it is silly. But I am not a millionaire.

Amen to that Max. I'm so sick of the MTA (metro transit authority) here in NYC. Every month there is a news article about how ridership is through the roof and they are breaking transportation records with millions upon millions of riders each day commuting to manhattan. Yet every year they cry poor and raise the rates. A few years ago it was 1.75$, now it's 2.25$ but there are more people riding than ever...where is the money going!!!
