Everything is 50% of what it was in the 60's. Gasoline, Pepsi, sandwich meat, medical costs, even candy! I just examined a Hershey's Kiss and it was half as big as it was more than four decades ago. How cheap can the Hershey Company be? I ripped off the silver paper (fake of course) and swallowed the sucker in one gulp. It tasted half as good as the ones I devoured as a youngster.
So it's boo-hoo on Hershey and all the millions of companies worldwide that are cheating on the products sizes and tastes. Their Research and Development teams are no better than the slaves who rowed boats to the beat of a drum in 200 B.C. They all cheated with blatancy, feathered their 401 accounts and laughed all the way to the bank.
The public nowadays is like pigeons on a hot tin roof. They just waste away their lives and take whatever comes along. Angry letters to product manufacturers are answered by a robot who signs the CEO's name and apologizes for any malfeasance. There might be a coupon in the envelope for a dollar off on the next purchase. Haw haw. You know where they can stick that coupon!
I think it's time we are all mad as hell and refuse to take it any longer. Perhaps a march on Washington Thanksgiving Day. Would Donald Trump make a difference? Excuse me while I go to the bathroom and throw up.
