Subway makes a decent sandwich. For five dollars, you can be full for a few hours, or at least you could. Mrs. Soetoro-Obama has decided that she knows better than I do what I should be eating and what I should be feeding my children. Bless her heart. Maybe she got that information while she was vacationing for three weeks in Hawaii over Christmas.
Maybe she got that information while she was looking at the garden she put in the White House yard. The garden she claims cost about $180 to install. The garden that is tended by government workers who are making $25 an hour if they are making a nickel. The same government that pays $650 for a hammer is telling me that they bought a rototiller, organic seeds, organic dirt, organic fertilizer, and the staff of two for $180. That
When I figured out the very least the labor cost, it was $1350 dollars. So by my math, we are up to $1800. As anyone who has ever really put in a garden knows, just putting the garden in is only the start of the labor. Figure that labor cost to be closer to 13,500, because if she had ever stepped another foot near her photo op, it would have been all over the news channels.
So unless she pulled out some miracle beans from this garden- every tomato that came out of there cost us about $73.00 each.
If Subway needed the money from the government teat that badly, maybe they should have stuck with those $5 sandwiches. That was doing pretty well for them. So was showing all of the people who had lost weight with their food. But goose stepping with the yeti? I'm going to miss that asiago bread, but I guess I'll live. Think about it, you'll thank me later.
