They have 9 kids plus themselves so 12 gallons a week isn't that insane but also kinda explains why obesity is out of control in America.

What's the joke here? Seems like a weird thing to troll.

---

i'm guessing she has about 17 kids? or just lying to make a bad point badly?

---

they complain too much. 3.29$ i pay for a gallon so i can have macaroni and cheese.
of course some goes to the dog and the roommate

i'm careful about the amount she doesn't get the runs.

Why buy the milk when the cow is free?

Good god. Maybe if you want your cost of living to be reasonable don't have 9 fucking kids.

No we are pointing out that they are seemingly lying about the numbers.
They are upper middle class.
And that is hell of a lot of a Milk.

Ive been paying $4.89 for a gallon of milk since the latter half of Bush administration. Where are these people finding such inexpensive milk?

Seriously lol I pay like 4 bucks minimum for my milk.

No. We're calling out bull shit. Who the fuck is buying 12 gallons, 4 times a week? Does she run a Nursery? And also, what point are they trying to make? That Biden made Milk prices go up? that increased wages made milk prices go up? its the old bull shit fear monger repackaged. The price of Milk has been going up long before Biden, it will go up long after him, and the increased wages isn't the reason. They're blaming the wrong people and things for this issue, so if they really do feel strongly about this, nothing will change because of it.

And you trying to turn this into a "struggling families" thing, as if you care about that, is laughable when you support a party that is against helping struggling families and you attack people like AOC who literally are trying to do everything they can to help struggling families, the RIGHT way, not by attacking Biden for something he didn't do and expecting it to change. Inflation is a real thing. We as a society need to adapt to it. not live on wages from 1995 expecting them to work in 2021.

It's possible these folks live in a decidedly unaverage zone, but painting their experiences as representative, without placing it into factual context, is really bad by CNN

---

If a total increase of $37.92 a month (80 * 12 * 4) is "a lot of money" are you really middle class? This seems so weird to me.

---

12 gallons a week?

Holy shit

Just buy wholesale crates of the stuff at that point or something. I'm sure that there is a cheaper and better way than hauling in 12 gallons of milk a week from Walmart or wherever.

---

Man im already paying too much for rent now im paying too much for milk too!?!?

---

Milk prices are kinda whatever, its the meat prices that are crazy af

---

God damn Brandon not eliminating economic inflation! How are we going to buy 12 loaves of bread a day?

---

Food $200
Data $150
Rent $800
Milk $3,600
Utility $150

someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this.
my family is dying

That's roughly a little over a gallon of milk per person each week. That's a fucked up amount of milk to consume lol.

---

If 80 cents is a big deal to you, shop at Aldi
---

If they're concerned about cost of living they should have kept their legs closed. They made the decision to have 9 kids. They need to stop being lazy and get another job instead of blaming the government.
---

You can't take my weekly family milk-chugging competitions, Joe.

---

Did I miss the part where anyone blamed Biden? This is a cnn video. I saw no mention of Biden. The video is abou inflation and struggles of the middles class.

Also, they didn't pump out 9 kids. They have 2 biological kids and the rest are adopted, including a sibling adoption. These are good people helping kids.

What the fuck is this topic and why is a mod posting fake news with the intent to mislead, troll and spread hate?

@Alpha218 what the fuck is this?

Very interesting the number of lovely people calling this big-hearted family liars for the amount of dairy they consume when the point is the price of all foods is skyrocketing. Yeah, you're truly the party of the common man. lmao. Jesus, exhale dude.

Dairy intolerance in my house so we just buy oat milk. But a half gallon is enough for our family of 4 because we dont drink our calories. Water, unsweetened tea and seltzer in this house.

310 usd seems so cheap for that much food. Try feeding 11 people a week in australia

They have no problem keeping their legs closed. 6 of their kids are adopted and 1 is a foster child but good job passing judgment on a family you don't know anything about.

How many kids have you adopted?

if they are adopted thats even worse imo. Dont even have the excuse it was an accident or she had Quintuplets. Might as well say Ive got 12 cars and petrol is too expensive.

So they knowingly adopted kids that they're not able to financially care for. That's even worse.

If they can't take care of them then they shouldn't have adopted that many

Meh, that's $33.48, not a lot

Lots of nasty trolls in here who don't give a fuck about the truth and just want to vomit their usual vitriol and hate. Can't believe everyone was so easily played by a troll mod.

Also interesting the tc refuses to comment on the purpose of this topic and why their topic title has nothing to do with the actual post.

You don't have a point. You didn't suddenly start making minimum wage when he was elected.

i thought it was pretty obvious I was being sarcastic. Especially in the context of my previous post but Ive updated it now anyway to remove any confusion. Hope this helps clear things up.
