		<description>Pomegranates? A plague of pomegranates and pomegranate-flavored beverages has swept across this nation over the course of the last year, running more delectable fruits out of town and jacking up prices everywhere. Seriously, you can get pomegranate soda, pomegranate ice tea, even pomegranate martinis these days. What happened to cherry? Or raspberry? Or even classic flavors like apple and orange? It's a curse, and it's going to tear this country apart. Mark my words. When you move to Bulgaria, I hope you take every single one of this nation's pomegranates with you.</description>

		<description>Bananas?  Grapes?  Naw, pomegranates, man.  Pomegranates are expensive.  We are moving to Bulgaria in the Fall and these luscious fruits are selling for far less money over there, so for the next couple of years we will be rolling in pomegranates.  
Costs are high on everything now... health insurance is through the roof, food is expensive, gas is like half of the cost in most of Europe (remind me again what we are complaining about?).  We are coddled, I swear it.  It will be interesting to see how it rolls over there for a while.

		<description>I dunno, I think bananas are still pretty cheap.  It's grapes that are killing my budget.</description>

		<description>Bananas.

Where is the reporting about the high cost of bananas?

Watermelons aren't cheap, either.

That Treet brand meat in a can stuff is steady at a buck per can.

Since inflation is outpacing savings interest rates (haven't heard a slimy politico babbling about saving for retirement lately, have you?) it makes sense to buy as much food as possible at today's prices without buying too much so you end up throwing out-dated foodstuffs away.

Thankfully those ramen noodle things are still cheap. Twelve cents per meal-sized package at the Mart-Wall store. Numerous goodies can be added to the ramen stuff. 

Had a wonderful watermelon a couple weeks ago. Cut back on a few non-necessary goods to save for the six bucks to grab a watermelon. Gotta' have at least one per summer season. It's an all-American thing to do akin to supporting our elite class in the lofty manner they are accustomed to; no matter what price the working-poor has to pay.

It was a dark-green round vice elongated oval shape melon. Seedless and the sticker prominently stated it to be a Missouri-grown melon.

Cut the critter with glee and salivated at the sight of its innards on display.

Laying there, nude, exposed, the melon enticed me, calling out to be eaten and that I did.

Golly gosh, best watermelon I've had in many moons.

Made it last several days thanks to the miracle of refrigeration and foil de la aluminum to protect the melon's fragile tissues from the refrigerator’s desiccating environment.

Oh, gas prices and the number four.

Simple solution.

Pray for higher gas prices. Get them up into the five dollar-plus range and too few "fours" will be a crisis of the past.

See how easy that was? If I was devoid of all common sense and morality I could be a scum vile putrid self-serving lackey of the elite class and corporate America and varied wealthy/powerful special interest groups more often referred to as a politician.

Look at who is running for prez. Is that the best the elite-owned and operated federal-level political system can offer us?

The elites aren’t even trying to sham/scam us anymore!!!!!

It's class warfare folks and we, the people are losing.

Maybe some day the working-poor will shrug off their indoctrination and realize they are being scammed.

If only my brethren in the agricultural arena would cease work for a year then get the truck drivers to park the rigs for a year we could bring the country and society to its knees.

Of course, there is the possibility the elites will send out their jack-booted thugs and do what they have done in the past, as revealed in SOME history books... incarcerate or kill the ringleaders.

America's elites will do anything necessary to defend the status quo they created that serves them so well.

Rush Limbaugh, the shill of the elite's, will find some way to defend any atrocity that supports the elite class.

Rush is rich. The elite's system rewards its minions well.</description>
