Expensive Locations

Glamorous, Expensive Locations

It has long been the case that many, if not most, photo shoots of beautiful women are in exotic, expensive locations. They’ve always been selling the dream of the whole lifestyle, not just the women. These days since Biden was installed as POTUS, this has become somewhat disturbing. More and more these days, I’m finding the expensive location being the grocery store!

Yeah, starting about mid June, 2021, hot babes in scanty clothing in grocery stores started getting more and more common. And, I say that is a nonstandard but on-the-ground accurate economic indicator. Worse, it’s an indicator that our economy – that of the normal American – is in collapse.

And please, my fellow Americans, understand that it will only get worse if Harris is installed into office. What passes for its economic policy is even worse than Biden’s. And that’s not even counting the chilling effect that Harris would have upon the American economy.

Economic Indicators

Economic Indicators

I freely admit that I’m no economist; voodoo is not my thing. Still though, certain key economic indicators can be seen and easily understood by laymen such as myself. And, while the indicators may look quite good, what they’re indicating is about as bad as it can get.

Congress' Economic Policy

Explaining Congress’ Economic Policy Generation

While it’s true that all attempts at macroeconomic theory are essentially voodoo, it takes on a whole different and more depraved tenor when Congress gets involves. And the Fed? The Gods alone know what arcane rituals they utilize, but I’d not be surprised if those rituals made them the #1 buyer of Planned Parenthood’s products. 🙄

Biden's Upside-Down Economy

Biden’s Upside-Down Economy

In the run-up to the 2022 Midterm Election, in which most Dems are faltering, Biden has decided to loudly jabber that, “Democrats are building a better America for everyone with an economy that grows from the bottom up.” 🙄 If Biden actually believes this – Hellfire! If we could even safely assume he knew what he was reading aloud – this would be a grimly perfect example of a goebbels-esque Big Lie (große Lüge).

Simply put, you can’t build up an economy from the bottom up unless you foster an entrepreneurial spirit among the lower half of the economic echelons. And that means lowering taxes on businesses, reducing restrictive regulations that hamper startups, and advantaging investments by venture capitalists in those startups. Exactly none of these things are those which don’t directly contradict Democrat dogma and political positions. All you can do, and all the Democrats are ever willing to do, is attack the successful makers in order to redistribute their wealth to those more likely to vote for Democrats.

Beyond Fake Meat

Beyond Fake Meat
Beyond Fake Meat

It’s looking like the days of fake meat may well be coming to an end. The Liberal/Progressive Eco-Fascists’, Climatards’, and Food Nazi’s dream of normalizing – and, of course, later mandating – plant-based “meat” products seems to be failing hard, wrecked upon the rocks of basic economics.

Beyond Meat is cutting its workforce by a 19% – approximately 200 employees – in a desperate move to slash eight figures’ worth of spending from its operation in order to survive it’s revenue collapse, which is now projected to be down by as much as $120 million (9-14%) from a year ago.

This failure is about as surprising as politician either lying or finding a way to “tax” more of your money. It’s simple economics. Fake meat is just too expensive; the only ones buying are the privileged coastal elites. And, even for them, it’s more about virtue signalling and supporting a Left-wing cause than wanting to eat the stuff. Certainly all attempts to mainstream fake meat have failed, with only 54% of people even trying vegetable-based meat alternative offerings at more blue-collar restaurants.

It’s really quite simple. It’s basic, almost remedial, economics. Any product that only appeals to a small number of potential customers and is necessarily priced above the pain point for the majority of people is doomed to either failure or being restricted to a small, niche offering.

And, given that the same Liberal and Progressive coastal elites that made a market for fake meat did so as a moralistic attack on normal people and as a way of entrenching their Warmist ideology, very few will miss this industry at all.
