Grocery prices fell in April for the first time this year, marking the largest monthly decline since September 2020.

Five of the six major grocery store group indexes dropped, led by a 12.7% decrease in egg prices, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Tuesday. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs declined 1.6% in April after recent increases. Nonalcoholic beverages was the only category that saw an increase, rising 0.7%.

Grocery prices experience biggest drop in almost 5 years

Up and down depending where. Should help by taking the government sponsored illegal aliens out of the mix.



Home values drop due to age over time.


Shortages, teetering on a housing market collapse again.

No, it stops with the interest rates the fed posts.


They borrowed for the monies in the Big Beautiful Bill.


Great way to kick an economy into high gear.

No, grocery prices are not dropping. While the rate of increase has slowed, prices are still higher than they were a year ago. For example, in March 2025, grocery prices were about 2.41% higher than in March 2024. Some specific items like eggs have seen price drops recently, but overall, grocery prices continue to rise, though at a slower pace than earlier in the year.
And you can't tell me gas is lower
As of Monday, July 7, 2025, the average gas price in Michigan is $3.15 per gallon for regular unleaded

No home values have dropped because interest rates went up and it was on purpose to cool down inflation. You blamed Biden for these things so blame Trump for your home value dropping. Can't have it both ways.

Too bad it didn't work in 2017. Trump passed his historic tax bill in 2016 and what GDP did he get in 2017? 2.3%? Remember he promised 4, 5 maybe even 6% growth. He got .01% better than Obama. So the tax breaks were a bust.

COVID was to America what AIDS was to your community.

And Meth/Fentynol are to your community what crack was to the black community

"White despair," or "deaths of despair," refers to the rising mortality rates, particularly among middle-aged white Americans, due to suicide, drug overdose, and alcoholic liver disease, according to researchers. This phenomenon is linked to declining socioeconomic conditions, increased social isolation, and perceived loss of social status, particularly among those without college degrees.

My community of straight retired white (half Greek) people?

Yeah, meth and fentanyl are our scourge.

Anyway, when your AIDS hit it put a damper on everybody's sex lives. ******* faggots and Haitians.

Funny..........they are where I shop.

Home values aren't supposed to drop or rise much, if at all.

You blamed Biden for these things so blame Trump for your home value dropping.

Home value dropping is relative to the age of a home, real estate 101.

 

[Nostra]

Well Trump already re negotiated NAFTA in his first term right? And Biden didn't touch it. Left it alone.

So Trump doesn't like his own trade deal?

And Trump already had a trade war with China too in 2017. Lost it. He must not have won because he's fighting Trade World War 2 now.

So Tater got no trade deals done. Another thing he was a dismal failure at.

 

[Nostra]

Dude, imagine if I sent 2 of my customers a letter like this:

25% increase in price for you go into effect on Aug. 1.

If you try to retaliate, there will be an additional 25% increase.

We have decided to move forward with you, but only with more balance.

“Therefore, we invite you to participate in the extraordinary business opportunities, the Number One Market in the World, by far.

“Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

If I were Japan and Korea I'd tell him to **** off. I'd start looking for new partners. And I'd definitely jack up my prices. Lower the tariffs but jack up the prices.

I’ll let you know”imagine” things. I live in the real world, lunatic.

You're just an American mutt. White. You aren't Greek. What's the other half? Oh it's not half? So you are truly a mutt. Never once did I hear about your other half. Because you are MUTT boy!

No homes have NOT been going down in price as they age you dumb ****.

They call it depreciation in knowledgeable real estate circles.

Well my condo I bought in 1995 for $60K you ******* idiot and today it's worth $200,000.

No, real estate isn't suddenly "aging" and "depreciating" because of age. Trump's fault. I'm sure you'd see it this way if Kamala were in charge right now you ******* hack.

 

[Delldude]

No, real estate isn't suddenly "aging" and "depreciating" because of age. Hi

Never said real estate is 'suddenly' aging. It's something that happens over TIME.

Do some research.

If anything, your place is over valued now.

Trump's fault.

Always is with you clowns.

I'm sure you'd see it this way if Kamala were in charge right now you ******* hack.

Nope...... function of the fed no matter who sits in the oval.

Well my condo I bought in 1995 for $60K you ******* idiot and today it's worth $200,000.

LoL.......fool makes joke.

Only due to the devaluation of the dollar......

So Tater got no trade deals done. Another thing he was a dismal failure at.

Donald Trump was asked to explain what had happened to his promise to seal “90 deals in 90 days”. Trump just waffled, talked about a couple of frameworks and possible deals in place and then appeared to suggest his plan now mainly involved sending letters to foreign governments and telling them the tariffs that their products will now be subject to when they are imported into America. LOL

Here is Trump’s response in full:

“Oh, we’ve spoken to everybody. We know every. It’s all done. I told you. I told you we’ll make some deals, but for the most part we’re gonna send a letter. We’re gonna say, ‘Welcome to the United States. If you’d like to participate in the greatest, most successful country ever.’ I mean, we’re doing better than ever. We have. I don’t think. And you’re gonna see these numbers soon. We’ve never had numbers like this. We’ve never had investment like this. Uh, we have more than 90. We’re gonna have much more than 90. But most of those are gonna be sent a letter. This is exactly what I said. Now, we’ve made a deal with United Kingdom. We’ve made a deal with China. We’ve made a deal. We’re close to making a deal with India. Others, we’ve met with, and we don’t think we’re gonna be able to make a deal. So, we just send them a letter. ‘Do you wanna, do you wanna play ball? This is what you have to pay.’ So, we’re, as far as I’m concerned, we’re done. We’re sending out letters to various countries, telling them how much tariffs they have to pay. Some will maybe adjust a little bit depending if they have a, you know, cause. We’re not gonna be unfair about it. And actually, it’s a small fraction compared to what we should be getting. We should be. We could be asking for much more. But for the sake of relationships that we’ve had with a lot of really good countries, we’re doing the way I do it. But we could be getting a lot more. We could ask for a lot more than what we’re asking for.”

If this wasn’t SO incredibly pathetic & embarrassing to the entire country and our standing across the world, it would be hilarious.

Actually if you knew the facts what Trump did to Paramount was illegal. He strong armed them. Wouldn't let them sell unless they paid up. This is a criminal organization similar to Putin's.

I posted Trump's exact words. In QUotes *****.
