30 years ago the average person spent 34% of their wages on food , today that’s down to only 11%. The big supermarkets and meat factory cartels have farmers squeezed into the ground . Into a situation where farmers are working harder and harder just to make a living. This has to change. What’s needed worldwide is a major cut in food production . A bit of hunger and they will pay more for food. When you hear people complaining about the price of food while holding a mobile phone costing a thousand euro then you know where their priority lies.In 1975 most households would have only had one car, of much more basic specification than today, very few would have a passport let alone take a foreign holiday , eating out would have been a rare treat, and one TV in the front room with none of the plethora of electronic devices that are considered essential to modern living. Strip out all these additional costs of modern life and houses are much more affordable but no one wants to live like that.
