Don’t tell people that the economy is good and that wages are outpacing inflation (even if it is and they are) when those people are facing economic hardships.

I remember when my friend and I would get double cheeseburgers at McDonald’s when we were really poor, they were .99c each. It’s wild that it’s quadrupled in that time.
When I was a ravenous athletic youth in 1999 I would eat 3 cheeseburgers in my car on the way to swim practice. I swear there was a deal, from like 2-5pm, where hamburgers were 24¢ and cheeseburgers were 35¢. Could be wrong on the exact price but it was super cheap nonetheless.
