Bloomberg News elicited a massive backlash over the weekend for offering ‘tips’ to Americans who might struggle with the rising cost of living which included letting their pets die and eating lentils instead of meat.
The piece, titled “Inflation Stings Most If You Earn Less Than $300K. Here’s How to Deal,” was penned by Teresa Ghilarducci, professor of economics at the New School for Social Research, a private university in New York.
Ghilarducci proved she is completely out of touch with the reality of life for everyday Americans, writing “I expect those most affected will adjust to inflation in the classic way by shifting away from relatively expensive items toward close substitutes.”
She continued, “Here are some ideas on how to reconfigure consumption and lessen the blow. But again, adjustment is hard for people without savings or choices.”
The professor then outlined how people should take public transportation instead of driving, eat meat subsitutes like lentils and vegetables, avoid buying items in bulk, and avoid medical expenses for pets.
Right, so let pets die? In short yes.
Ghilarducci writes “If you’re one of the many Americans who became a new pet owner during the pandemic, you might want to rethink those costly pet medical needs. It may sound harsh, but researchers actually don’t recommend pet chemotherapy — which can cost up to $10,000 — for ethical reasons.”
TOP TIP: Let beloved animals die of cancer.
Ghilarducci also reasoned that because “Meat prices have increased about 14% from February 2021 and will go up even more,” we should eat lentils instead because the price of those is only “up about 9%.”
“Plan to cut out the middle creature and consume plants directly. It’s a more efficient, healthier and cheaper way to get calories.” she states.
When Bloomberg tweeted out the article, with the bullet point “nobody said this would be fun,” the backlash was swift:

Meanwhile, in response to the skyrocketing prices of oil and gas, the globalist International Energy Agency (IEA) has called for lockdown style restrictions, including banning the use of cars on Sundays and forcing people to work at home for half the week.
Climate Depot notes that the agency’s “A 10-Point Plan to Cut Oil Use” includes reducing speed limits, working from home, cutting business air travel and imposing an SUV “tax.”
You’ll own nothing, go nowhere, live in a pod, eat lentils and bugs, let your dog die of cancer, and enjoy it.
