Rising Thanksgiving costs

​​Thanksgiving: A Time for Gratitude Amid Rising Challenges

EDITOR'S NOTES

This Thanksgiving, we’re reminded of our blessings—but we can’t ignore the hard truths staring us in the face. Families gather around the table while millions of Americans struggle to make ends meet. Food prices are skyrocketing, our economy teeters on the brink, and taxpayer dollars are funding foreign wars instead of helping people here at home. Thanksgiving isn’t just about giving thanks—it’s about taking a hard look at what’s happening in our country and fighting for the values that make America great.

Thanksgiving Reflections: Gratitude and Reality

This Thanksgiving, let’s start with gratitude. We’re blessed with life, family, and friends. If you have a warm meal to share, you’re already ahead of millions who don’t. While we gather in comfort, let’s remember the homeless, our veterans, and those battling mental health challenges. They’re the forgotten faces in the shadows of our nation.

But gratitude alone isn’t enough. It’s time for action. Donate clothes, food, or even a little time to help those in need. Small acts of charity ripple outward, reminding us of what it means to be truly American.

The Health Crisis We Ignore

We’re facing a silent epidemic in America: obesity. This Thanksgiving, millions will pile their plates high and then promise themselves a diet come January. Let me be blunt: your health can’t wait. Poor health doesn’t just steal years from your life; it steals time with your loved ones. Don’t let another holiday pass without taking a step toward fitness. Start small. Move more. Your family deserves a healthier you.

Food Waste: A National Shame

Here’s a gut punch for Thanksgiving: 316 million pounds of food will be wasted today. Meanwhile, 18% of Americans face food insecurity, and billions globally lack adequate nutrition. That’s not just a statistic—it’s a moral failure. Instead of letting leftovers rot in the fridge, donate them to a food bank or give them to the homeless. Wasting food in a land of plenty is the height of hypocrisy.

Thanksgiving Costs: The Elites’ Lies Exposed

The elites want you to believe that Thanksgiving costs are “manageable.” They claim you can feed a family of ten for $58. Really? A turkey costs 23% more than it did a few years ago, and stuffing is up 52%. Who are they kidding? The numbers don’t add up because they’re cooking the books. The truth is clear: American families are paying more and getting less.

Foreign Aid: A Thanksgiving Betrayal

While Americans struggle, the government hands billions to Ukraine. Reports of corruption—mansions, luxury cars, and Swiss bank accounts—prove where your hard-earned tax dollars are going. Meanwhile, we’re told to tighten our belts. Enough is enough. We need accountability. Stop funding foreign wars and start taking care of Americans.

The Housing Market: A Trap for the Unprepared

Thinking of buying a home? Think again. The housing market is teetering on the edge. Sales have plummeted, inventory is piling up, and interest rates are through the roof. This is déjà vu from 2008, and the elites want you to dive headfirst into another crisis. Don’t let them trap you in an overvalued market.

The Bigger Picture: Economic Collapse on the Horizon

Inflation. National debt. A declining savings rate. The signs are everywhere. Americans are relying on credit cards and government subsidies just to scrape by. What happens when those safety nets collapse? The elites will be fine—they’ve got their golden parachutes. But for ordinary Americans, the landing won’t be soft.

Immigration: A Growing Burden on Communities

In towns like Springfield, Ohio, the influx of migrants is overwhelming local resources. Communities are struggling to keep up, and taxpayers are footing the bill. This isn’t about being anti-immigrant—it’s about fairness. Legal immigrants followed the rules. Why are we punishing them by allowing chaos at the border?

Closing Thoughts: Fight for What Matters

This Thanksgiving, cherish your blessings. Hug your family. Enjoy your meal. But don’t get complacent. Be mindful of your health. Avoid food waste. And above all, stay vigilant. Our freedoms, our values, and our way of life are under attack.
