I've had this conversation with a few people in the last week. I'm fine paying for quality but I just can't find it anymore. I'm just about at the point where it's not worth buying anything new since it's not going to last any longer than used.

    Yeah it's typically 30-40 main and 15 per drink for me as well but with kids we rarely go out so that's a splurge. Also didn't include child care but since this was primarily about singles I didn't think it was as relevant. Parking also isn't free a lot of the time and that could be another 10-40+depending on the city and events going on.

    Man life is too expensive.

    Probably the old standard dinner and a movie. Assuming $20 for a main (x2) $10 drinks (x2 to 4) $15 show tickets (x2) maybe a $20 snack that's already over $100 and I low balled all of those prices. It could easily hit $200 especially if this is looking at larger population hubs.

    Yes and no. Production capacity takes a long time to build up in manufacturing. Plus these are specialized parts so the build up will take longer. Don't expect a significant production capacity increase in the US for 5-10 years.

    There's probably not a whole lot of outage because this has been a pretty prominent feature of GOP thought since, if we are being nice, 2016 and if we're being honest, pretty much always. They didn't really hide or change anything.
