Imagine finding out a company feeding millions of families… a company that has cans sitting in your cabinet and mine right now… had an executive caught on a secret recording saying their products are basically “sht for fcking poor people.”
Saying the meat was “bioengineered” and comparing it to chicken from a 3-D printer.
Like quality doesn’t matter because of who they think is buying it.

Because this isn’t just about soup.
It’s about how companies talk about us when they think we won’t hear them.
It’s about the quiet belief that poor people don’t deserve quality… or honesty… or real food on the shelves our kids choose from.

And I’m sorry… but when did we stop being people.
When did feeding struggling families become an open invitation to cut corners.
When did it become acceptable to hide ingredients and shrug because “they’ll eat it anyway”.

We are not disposable.
We are not less deserving.
We are not bodies to be filled with whatever is cheapest to produce.
We are parents and workers and caretakers trying to survive a world that already makes every basic human need feel like a luxury.

This isn’t about being poor.
This is about being human.
Because the second a company decides one group is worth less and the second they decide transparency doesn’t apply to “those people” it becomes inhumane.

Enough.
Enough acting like people with less money somehow deserve less food, less truth, less dignity.

I’ll never buy Campbell's again and either should you because THIS is what we stand for.

Consumer Alert ‼️

RECALL ALERT:

Social Security contributions were made for over 50 years on every salary I received. I may not have been doing the work I wanted to be doing all of the time but I always had a job.

Some elected officials want the Social Security check to now (or soon) be referred to as a "Federal Benefit Payment.” I am forwarding it because it touches a nerve in me, and I hope it will in you. Please keep passing it on until everyone in our country has read it.

The government is now referring to our Social Security checks as a "Federal Benefit Payment." Why? Because Federal Benefits are generally granted by the government and can be eliminated or reduced by the government. However, Social Security is NOT a benefit. It is our money paid out of our earned income! Not only did we all contribute to Social Security but our employers did too. It totaled 15% of our income before taxes.

If you averaged $30K per year over your working life, that's close to $180,000 invested in Social Security.

If you calculate the future value of your monthly investment in social security ($375/month, including both you and your employers contributions) at a meager 1% interest rate compounded monthly, after 40 years of working you'd have more than $1.3+ million dollars saved!

This is your personal investment. Upon retirement, if you took out only 3% per year, you'd receive $39,318 per year, or $3,277 per month.

That's almost three times more than today's average Social Security benefit of $1,230 per month, according to the Social Security Administration. (Google it – it’s a fact).

And your retirement fund would last more than 33 years (until you're 98 if you retire at age 65)! I can only imagine how much better most average-income people could live in retirement if our government had just invested our money in low-risk interest-earning accounts. So what happened?

Instead, the folks in Washington pulled off a bigger "Ponzi scheme" than Bernie Madoff ever did. They took our money and used it elsewhere. They forgot (oh yes, they knew) that it was OUR money they were taking. They didn't have a referendum to ask us if we wanted to lend the money to them. And they didn't pay interest on the debt they assumed. And recently, they've told us that the money won't support us for very much longer.

But is it our fault they misused our investments? And now, to add insult to injury, they're calling it a "benefit", as if we never worked to earn every penny of it. Just because they borrowed the money doesn't mean that our investments were a charity!

Let's take a stand. We have earned our right to Social Security and Medicare. Demand that our legislators bring some sense into our government.

Find a way to keep Social Security and Medicare going for the sake of that 92% of our population who need it.

Then call it what it is: Our Earned Retirement Income.
