Biden’s USDA: There’s No Food Price Inflation

[Weatherman2020]

Stop believing your lying eyes.

And with that SS payment hikes won’t match real world costs.
Democrats hate the poor and elderly.

Locally, in the last year egg prices are up 100%. Milk prices are up 50%.

Is this hyperinflation happening?

Specifically they hate American poor and elderly and are devoted to Illegal alien poor and elderly. It's why, without cheating, they'd die as a national party

Do not forget that companies reduce the quantity of product for the same price also during these times to hide the inflation. Reminded of it this morning on TV.

All I know is I sent the wife to the store to get us a small roast and when I looked at the price I could not believe it. $10.03 a pound for a USDA Choice cut.....And that was at Aldi.....A year ago that same cut of roast at Aldi cost around $6.00 a pound.....Good thing we don't eat much beef.

Yep, the ever shrinking world of food products. When was the last time anyone saw a pound of coffee or gallon of ice cream?
