The symbol of poverty in america
there's two Family Dollars here one mile apart, straight from one intersection to the other
have a bumpin
Only the first one is an honest to god dollar store
I mean can you get like rice and beans that aren't made of plastic? Consumerism is degenerate tbqh
boomp
other things they've slyly shoved into everyone's face:
tv shows:
American Picker
Storage Wars
Pawn Stars
all the survivalist / off-grid living reality shows
every show that tries to convince you that you can become wealthy from digging through garbage
Salvage Dawgs
repo shows
everything to make it look like everyone is homeless and just need to entrepreneur-up their game using stuff no one else wants
its a huge list of shows that do this narrative shit
>just open a restaurant, flip a house, restore an old car, open an espresso stand, etc
but in reality most ppl cant get funding, loans, grants, etc
we shop at the dollar stores for expensive trash that is cheaper than the super-expensive trash in a regular store
>check cashing places
>dollar stores
>food banks
>plasma cash
>recycle centers
>salvage/second-hand stores
>bingo/casinos
i could go on but this shit has been building up ever since the 80s when truly massive layoffs started happening
We call the dollar store "Apartment Depot" in our neck of the woods. Based chinese goods and candy
They have normal and even organic food.
Shouldnt that be mcdonalds and walmart?
