cigarettes for a quarter a pack.
i remember my parents buying cigarettes for a quarter a pack from a vending machine and there were two or three pennies inside the cellophane wrapper (early ’50s). of course, they were regular, old fashioned short (not “king size”) without a filter.
later (early ’60s) when i was in the navy, when we got out of u.s. water offshore, they were a dollar a carton without the tax. king size pall malls, my brand, were a dollar ten a carton. on shore, off the base, (taxed) they were thirty cents a pack.
now, i don’t smoke, and that’s even cheaper – easier on the health too!
Re 4 Cent Stamps Today Should Be .80 Cents, That’s Why The Post Office Had So many Problems.
Social Security checks should be double what they are, and minimum basic livable wage should be $26/hr, that’s why young consumers didn’t have any savings accounts and or down payments before the ’08 crash.
A factor of 20 X the old prices is a good reference point. 15 X and you’re being nice.
Some Old Prices:
Newspaper .05 cents, Coffee .10 cents, Gasoline .25 cents, Cigarettes .25 cents, house $30,000-$40,000, decent car $2,500, Candy bars .05 cents, McDonalds burger .15 cents, slice of pizza and a small Coke .25 cents.
In 1965 I was offered a small house for $8,000, later on almost bought a full size one for $12,000. Late ’60s or early ’70s I was offered a nice full size waterfront house for $18,000. $550k today same house.
Go ahead and do X 15 on those numbers.

The Irish eyes were smiling on him. Green jackets and Irishmen go good together, even if he is a heathen from the north.

That’s a perfect illustration of what should be done. Let the libtards argue against that!

It’s about time. I wonder if any of the gun-free-zone zealots will begin to get the message that armed security is the best defense against this kind of incident. Frankly, I doubt it. Nor will it get nearly the play, or the discussion, on MSM.
Also, thanks for the reply to my computer security question.
Kudos to the officer

I think Malwarebytes is the best one. I’m running that and Superantispyware these days. AVG is good too.
Is this a surprise to anyone?

eeos–or others in the know: computer security
I know you’re a Windows guy. I’m running Windows 7 on home computer. McAfee has run out and I want to get rid of it anyway (I know it can be difficult to un-install; advice?). What’s my simplest best free computer security system/combination? I do run anti-malware bytes and CCleaner periodically.

Reverse point wave down in stock index futures
We may have some kind of top in the stock market for a while. If the tariffs keep coming, things may get very interesting. Trump may get that tidal wave of debt coming home from the Chinese. That instant pop up in interest rates may catch some folks with their financial pants down.
The local economy here is really hopping with the oil field going crazy again. I’ve seen this rodeo before. some smaller oil companies are floating debt to the public and if they hit, the public gets their puny interest. If it goes south, guess who holds the bag! The oil field used to have honorable people in it. They are few and far between now.
Still lurking almost daily.
