January inflation numbers

[Thinker101]

Consumer prices increased at an annual rate of 6.4% in January — a slight slowdown from the 6.5% seen in December, but above analysts' prediction of 6.2%.

Food prices increased 10.1% from last January, the ninth-consecutive double-digit annual increase for that category.

Shelter costs, which includes rent and the cost of homeownership, increased 7.9%. That's the fastest annualized rate since 1982. Rent costs increased 8%, another new record.

January inflation hits 6.4%, missing analysts' expectations for a faster slowdown

Sad that wages are in decline when inflation is added into the equation.

Thank God for Joe Biden and the left for bringing inflation down from 6.5% to 6.4%, even though many Americans can't afford food or shelter. But, not worry, it's all probably transitory.

Americans who cannot afford food or shelter do not need to worry

Republicans will take care of them

They should work harder or educate themselves to better position themselves for a better job.

Waiting for the government to fix their financial problems is a copout.

The government created their financial problems.

WTF?

Republicans complain about Americans who cannot afford food or shelter but are unwilling to do anything to help them?

 

[Catsnmeters]

The government created their financial problems.

Blaming the govenrment for their own failings?

The party of responsibility in action.

welcome to Joey Xiden, Demafascsit utopia....where people are poorer, and can't afford basics like a roof over their head or food

Uh, yeah, blaming the government for their failings. Again, the government created the mess, the government failed.

Not voting for Xidenflation is the best thing to do to help them.

Remind me again, which party is in the White House, which party controls the Senate, which party controlled the House for the last two years?

The govenrment caused them to not to get a good job?

That doesn't sound like personal responsibility to me.

I used to be one of them way back in my younger days, eons ago. I couldn't wait for the minimum wage to go up so that I could earn more money. I was a diehard Democrat back then, thinking that they were for the little guy while Republicans were only for the rich. Then, one day, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I concluded that if my only goal to earn more money in life was to wait for the minimum wage to go up, I would ALWAYS be poor. So, I picked myself up by my bootstraps, worked my way up into management, climbed a bunch of ladders over the years and have owned my own business for about 20 years now. I thank God for slapping me in the face to open my eyes way back then so I didn't wind up in generational poverty, voting D year after year after year and blaming Republicans for my pitiful life.

Has the American people learned their lesson? Stop electing stupid shit Democrats FFS.

 

[BluesLegend]

In related dumb ass Dem news, Dems are using their food stamps to purchase cases of water...they dump out the water and turn in the bottles for the 10 cent return fee to purchase drugs.
