No inflation? Does this guy provide for his family? My bills keep going up, up, up. My electric bill now almost matches my mortgage payment. Groceries eat me out of house and home.
The government’s inflation numbers parallel their phony unemployment numbers.
A half gallon of ice cream is now 1-1/2 quarts, a 64 oz container of OJ now delivers 58 ounces, coffee comes in 12 oz bags instead of 1 lb, bacon comes in 12 oz now instead of 1lb. Most of what you buy now comes in similar-sized packaging to what you remember but delivers smaller quantities, but at the old price. “VOX” means extremist moupiece.
The food costs are amazing - every time I go to the store things have gone up.
The only thing we’re saving money on now, is gas for the car.

Indeed. But the low price of gas masks the truth.
Shadowstats thinks inflation has come down recently, but is still in the 3.5% range. Seem reasonable to me.
