The average American has lost $4,200 in income due to soaring inflation and rising interest rates, according to an analysis by the Heritage Foundation.

Experts at the right-leaning think tank analyzed consumer prices data and the Federal Reserve's interest rates. Consumer prices have risen 12.7 percent since 2021, far outpacing wages and Heritage experts believe this has cost Americans about $3,000 each in purchasing power.

As the Fed pushes interest rates to a range of 3-3.25 percent, higher borrowing costs are squeezing Americans on mortgages, vehicle loans and credit cards, costing another $1,200 per year.

Our buying power has went straight to shit.....About the only thing you can buy at a pre-Tater price is a Costco roasted chicken.....And they just sell them at that price to get you into the store.
I got sirloin steak for four dollars a pound, last week it was ribeye for four nineteen a pound at a place called Ten-Box.

Maybe they can explain how profits soared when companies raised their prices. If they were raising prices due to inflation then how can profits shoot up. Another group looked at company financial statements and determined around 50% of the inflation was due to companies raising prices.

What the Fed refuses to accept is the fact that there is very little they can do about this inflation. They cannot produce more oil. They cannot force companies to lower prices. They cannot produce more computer chips. The inflation is especially concentrated in industries where there is little or no competition. They are isolated from what they do because they are just fine no matter what they do.

Yep, Bidung promises to kill the oil industry and the sky-high inflation/prices are just a coincidence...dumbass.

Biden sold our strategic oil reserves to the Chinese, and we might be in a war with them.
That is treason.
Tool.

"In Trump's first year as president, the Department of Energy sold 550,000 barrels from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve — or SPR — to PetroChina, a state-owned energy giant and China's largest oil producer, Axios' Sophia Cai first reported."

Inflation always sucks, but we've never been able to escape it.

$4,200 is $11.50/day. Brown bag your lunch to work and you'll get that back.
