When did microwaves get so expensive?

When households started having 3+ children who won't bother cooking. Idk if is a generational thing, but I've noticed most people my age won't even bother to learn how to cook SMH.

Should...shouldn't that make it cheaper?

We DON'T live in a supply side utopia?? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Lmao. No. Take for example the most popular smartphone in the world: the iPhone. Why isn't it cheaper? Also microwaves have gotten cheaper, I've heard they used to cost thousands in the 1970s and 80s.

Why do you think you can't cook with a microwave? ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Oh you can. Now whether they do it or not is a other story.
