Why Pork Sung so Xpensive.
« on: Wed, 16 September 2015, 08:19:33 »
How do normal people afford to this...

These prices are insane..

It's not expensive converted to USD, but relative to the average wages of the locals, this is pretty ridiculous..

My cloths are similar enough, I smell like sweating probably, since I sweat more than the average native, because they're more acclimated to the humidity here.

Accent.. possibly but not detectable under normal circumstances, such as shopping

I had to read what this is - sounds great!

But raw meat is reduced 5:1 so it stands to reason that it would cost at least 5x the price of the original meat.
From the US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8 :

The   Congress   shall have Power
To declare War,  grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;
To provide for calling forth the Militia  to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;
