While in Fairbanks it is noted with some despair that milk prices rise by 20 cents or so every few months so that now they are around $3.79/gallon, meanwhile, in the village, milk prices have barely budged in over 5 years, staying well below $16/gallon at just $7.69/half-gallon. Before tax anyway.

I could go on.

And there are people who actually think that they can get by without subsistence. Thankful for life in other universes! 🤪
