What makes up grocery costs being up over 25% in less than 4 years... under Democrats

[healthmyths]

March 2024, and the latest data shows food prices have risen a whopping 25.8% since then the election in 2020.

Here’s How Much Grocery Prices Have Increased Since the Last Election

If you feel like your trips to the grocery store have been putting a bigger dent in your wallet lately, you're not imagining things. Food prices in the United States have risen significantly over the...

Now folks one costs of groceries that affects ALL phases of grocery prices... diesel fuel.
We all know that our personal gas prices have increased from 2020 an increase of $1.10 a gallon or 48.7%.May 5, 2024

Here's how to quantify gas, food and homeownership inflation in last 4 years

We have all been adjusting to the challenge of inflation for the past four years or so. Jeff MacLellan explains the numbers.

BUT the cost of diesel fuel has gone up as this shows:

Now groceries are part of "Trucks Carry Trillions of Dollars of Goods. According to the CFS, trucks transported 71.6%".

Most Goods Americans Use in Their Daily Lives Are Transported and Delivered by Truck

Trucks are the main form of transport of goods that Americans rely on, delivering $10.4 trillion of the $14.5 trillion of goods shipped in 2017.

Now for those of you that think the milk you bought at the store...just magically shows up...
There are multiple steps in getting the milk to you and almost all involve trucks using diesel fuel.
So indirectly the price of milk includes the cost of diesel fuel to deliver all the steps to the ability for you to buy your milk.

Gee, what could have been going on in 2020 to cause the price of gas to be so low? Taking a wild guess here..........was it demand for gas dropping off a cliff because trump shut the economy down in the midst of a global pandemic?

Grocery prices skyrocketed under Biden because his open borders let in 12,000,000 illegals who get free food while Americans need to take money from savings to put food on the table.

Americans need an extra $11,400 today just to afford the basics, Republican analysis finds

Compared with 2021, the typical household must spend an additional $11,434 annually just to maintain their standard of living, analysis shows.

Here is the not-spun data version of the above:

We got hit with post-Covid recession inflation (which was a global phenomenon) and we've fixed it under Biden's administration.

Wage growth has been higher than inflation for 18 months now:

25% ???

That's a total fucking LIE.

Try 125%

Progressives told us they had all of the answers. They beat Trump down endlessly since before the 2016 election. Lie after lie after lie. The great unifier on day one attacked the deplorables and dregs. They screwed with oil production and the way it was carried. they had to expand production because the prices were going full tilt up. They stopped drilling or curtailed it mostly. And that is what helps oil to stay down as we have a lot of oil. Pipelines and drilling. Stupid asses keep voting for you.

It's not just the added cost of energy used to transport the goods but the energy used to produce the goods.

To start democrat governors shut down the states, and you all flip flop on the shutting down stuff one minute it's TRUMP shut down, the next it's all Governments shut down. And if shut downs were bad why do you all defend Fauci who recommended the shut downs?

Especially the schools!
The statistics are the below.
NOW the point is Trump wasn't it favor but let the states decide and this UNION leader..Randi Weingarten, president of the 1.8 million-member AFT along with Fauci wanted to hurt Trump in as many ways possible...
AT THE EXPENSE of under age 17 kids' education!
Now some of you say.."well the teachers were at risk."
FACTS
Among over 1 million child care workers, 405 died from COVID in 2020, the study found, using data from nearly every state.
Pre-kindergarten through 12th grade teachers, , had somewhat lower mortality rates than the typical worker.
Eight hundred and eight teachers at public and private schools died from COVID in the first year of the pandemic.

Study documents COVID fatality rates of teachers, child care workers

Child care workers died at higher rates than other workers, while teachers died at somewhat lower rates in 2020.

And so the country shut the schools at the insistence of the Democrats, Teachers Union and "scientist" Fauci!

Since that's an entirely delusional statement, it's not worth considering the rest of your post - no doubt it's just more delusional nonsense.

Oh Yeah! You're so well informed!

U.S. COVID deaths in 2021 surpass 2020 total

To date, there have been 111 reported Covid cases resulting in 1.2+million deaths:

Without the lockdown those numbers probably would have been more than double.

My son took remote classes, in High School, during the lockdown and in his first year of college. He's now graduating with a double major.

The lockdown did not adversely affect his education at all.

But keep trying - I find your BULLSHIT very entertaining!

I agree with you, I've never heard one progressive say that had "all the Answers"... you are right.

What I have heard were two statements by a progressive leader:

I guarantee We Are Going To Get Rid of Fossil Fuels” September 06, 2019, 5:49 PM


The EFFECT:
Americans due to progressives are paying 44% more for gas of at least 155,520,000 of Americans with driver's license
that commute via their car to work every day. Thanks to progressives!

Repeated lie Berg, you have the credibility of a crook. Look at the price in 2019 if 2020 doesn't do it for you. No don't, your spine can't take it.

"Let me — let’s debunk some myths here. My administration has not stopped or slowed U.S. oil production; quite the opposite. We’re producing 12 million barrels of oil per day. And by the end of this year, we will be producing 1 million barrels a day, more than the day in which I took office. In fact, we’re on track for record oil production in 2023."
