Just today bought an item at the hardware store that a year ago cost $8.00; now it cost $11.00.

That is not eight percent inflation.

The nest egg I saved for retirement has probably half the purchasing power as when Biden seized control; maybe a little more.

Tomorrow it will be worth less.

Before the virus a 4x8 sheet of oak plywood was running about $72.

It was $144 at the beginning of the week.

It is bad, and worse than the media-governmental complex say.
