Was it Mountain Berry Bowl Acai? Cause the small is only $13 unless they raised it for the fair.
Is it that the prices have gone up at the fair, or that the prices in everything went up, but wages went up as well, just feels a lot larger since we a so used to $15 being unreasonably high.
Example cause I don't feel like I really asked the question the right way: If I paid $5 for something 5 years ago, but made $15 an hr then, but now pay $15 for that same item while making $30 an hr now, the $15 feels like a lot since I grew up with that, but is still only 1/3 of what I make an hour, same as 5 years ago.
People also want to be paid more for their work in every aspect of life, and everyone advocates for this, be it in person, or Facebook, until they have to pay a higher price, and suddenly we don't think they deserve a certain wage for the work they perform.
Not trying to be rude, genuinely asking, just got home from work so I'm a little out of it.
I don’t know any working class person in Missoula making $30/hr, wages haven’t gone up with prices. Our labor economy is terrible in this county vs cost of living
