Inflation, inflation, inflation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Woodznutz]

The GOP is too busy self destructing to take on the DNC, which they have never done before, so why start now?

The American people are on their own.

The American people are our biggest problem.

3.4% inflation the last twelve months, you are all gonna die

On Top of everything else?

You re being disingenuous.

How much more do YOU spend on all your monthly bills than you did in Feb 2020?

Votto, as usual, does not link to a source. The 17% is 15 years of DemGOP free interest money, printing free money, and trillions by Trump and Biden, but it is all Biden's fault. His answer would not pass a 6th grade test as a qualified answer.

The last year is 3.4%.

 

[Woodznutz]

But this shrinkflation sacrifice is planned for ordinary Americans by their “betters,” the wealthy liberal elites setting these policies. Don’t expect the progressives in power to give up their private jets, their second and third vacation homes, or their pristine ocean views at their beach houses.

The progressive elites will never make the same sacrifices. Those sacrifices are only for the rest of us.

Such manifestations of wealth create lots of good paying jobs and tax revenues.

Building shit cheaply and intending it to be replaced is done to drive profits.

Cool story bro. What derives $150 government hammers and $300 toilet seats?

 

[Mac1958]

Pour $11 trillion in liquidity into markets over 12 years, keep interest rates artificially low, and then have global supply chains completely collapse when demand explodes coming out of lockdowns, and this is what you get.

The ignorant partisans can blame whomever they want if it makes them feel better, but this thing was inevitable.

 

[Aldo Raine]

The best thing to come out of the inflation is that it got rightwingers to give a fuck about poor people again.

Nope, they don't now and never will!

This board filled with cry baby's. We have had it so much better than most of the rest of the world, No the negatives are not fun,
but paying 50 cents or a dollar more, beats the hell out of no food water or electricity OR bombs.

 

[MayorQuimby]

Things will now cost much more and not work as well.

I can vouch this.

I used to really enjoy those butter biscuits. They used to be really buttery and rich. But recently I have noticed that they didn't taste as good. Although the price stayed the same. I think the company that makes them doesn't want to raise the price, however since everything has gone up so much, ingredients plus transportation and such, they have to cut something. So they sacrificed the quality of their biscuits.

greed by those contracted by the Govt and a system that allows such things to fall through the cracks

Gold over $2,400...Silver approaching $30.

It happens slowly, then all at once.

What was it the last year of Trump's term?

Nope, it's not only about inflation.

Since early 2023 inflation has been around 3%, outstripped by 5% wage growth.

Which means general improvements in affordability despite inflation.

After COVID anyone who believes the data coming from government is a fool.

Biden’s ‘less is more’ mantra demands sacrifice only from average Americans | Blaze Media

The Biden administration can’t escape the blame for higher prices. And that’s why it must try to redirect voters’ anger.

Did I mention inflation?

It will only get worse until the country enters stagflation, but the Progressive agenda is more important.

Here are the ways the DNC is making the working class want to kill themselves.

But the liberal “shrinkflation” agenda is more than just higher prices. We’re seeing a whole-of-government approach to increasing our misery coming out of the Biden administration by forcing average Americans to sacrifice their quality of life and comfort for the progressive agenda.

It’s not only the Biden administration demanding that we expect less. It is working to deliver less. Here are just a few examples:

• Appliances, NPR warns, are becoming a “culture war target” because they don’t actually work well under Biden administration policies. The truth, according to Fox News, is that “recent energy regulations proposed or finalized by the Biden administration would, on average, make water heaters cost $2,800 more, gas stoves as much as $3,250 more expensive, air conditioners $1,100 more expensive, and gas furnaces nearly $500 more expensive.” And consumer groups point out that the new appliances “are often less effective than their predecessors.”
• Love your truck? Don’t get too attached. As the Wall Street Journal’s Kimberly Strassel warns, “Biden is coming for your truck.” But Americans know that “no Tesla is going to function in the bitter cold of a Wisconsin or Alaska winter; no Ford Lightning will manage the work of a Montana ranch or a Kansas farm.”
• And finally, what’s up with the bugs? Why are the elites so obsessed with normalizing “insect protein” while finding ways to backdoor ban steaks and seafood for the rest of us?

The economy is the #1 issue for voters in 2024.

Meanwhile:

Since Biden took office:

Gasoline: +47.8%
Groceries: +21.1%
Restaurants: +21.4%
Baby food: +30.5%
Pet food: +23.7%
Rent: +20.9%
Electricity: +28.3%
Natural gas: +26.9%
Used cars: +20.9%
Air fare: +32.7%
Public transportation: +22.2%
Real average weekly earnings: -3.9%

So we should ignore the corruption that takes billions from tax payers every year? That's how those countries that have no food, water, or electricity got the way they did, government corruption.

Current inflation is 3.5%

That’s pretty normal
