This meme is a humorous observation about the contrast between the wealthy and the poor. The text reads: "watching a billionaire above me burn 300 gallons of fuel flying to applebees *oh no i didn't bring my own bag to the store*". It pokes fun at the irony of a wealthy person's actions being criticized by someone who is not even able to afford a reusable bag.

This meme is a humorous comparison between the prices of everyday items during the Roman Empire and the modern Western world. The image features two columns, one labeled "Westerners when prices go up" and the other "Romans when prices go up". The Westerners' column shows images of a gas pump, a house for sale, and a dozen eggs, with the text "We can't afford it!" The Romans' column shows a lettuce, a cabbage, and a soldier's helmet, with the text "Time to kill the emperor!" The meme is meant to poke fun at the idea that ancient Romans were more tolerant of price increases, and that they would have been more likely to take action against their leaders rather than just complaining about the cost of living.

This meme is a play on the classic "how-to" book format, but with a humorous twist. The image shows a person holding a book with the title "How to Save Money" and the first page has a list of three absurdly expensive and impractical ways to save money. The text on the page reads: "1) Stop buying chingaderas (a slang term for expensive or flashy things), 2) Make your cafecito (coffee) at home, and 3) Eat your food in the kitchen, not in a restaurant." The image is meant to be humorous and satirical, poking fun at the idea that saving money is not as simple as just following these three steps.

The teacher's statement is ironic because it suggests that economics is a science that can be used to justify the exploitation of the poor.
