Not only do food prices go up. The size of everything is shrinking.
I don’t by potato chips, but I noticed 5 dollars for a half of what they call large size.
If you don’t count what sustains life…
Grade “A” Bullshit
Baghdad Bob did it better.
Guess the FED is lying. Must be. The white hut never lies. Do they?

Inflation was 19% and higher on some things.
‘Lunch Bucket’ Bidet&Co is full of BS.
I just paid $6.75 for a 4-pk of Valetta Mac and Cheese. Once one of the cheapest eats in the supermarket.
Things wouldve been better now if they simply did nothing over the last 3 years.
Wow, we never got down below $3.50- we are now $3.59.
When trump left office, gas was under $2 in most places. We were $2.16 or so at our lowest. In just one year under obiden, gas jumped to newrly $4.50- which is $2.34 cents higher-
The only thing that changed was that obiden stopped oil and the pipeline, making us dependent on foreign oil again. The left love to say “demand increased, which raised gas prices” but that is crap- Trump got prices down from when oblama was president- significantly! Even though demand grew under Trumps presidency.
The price of everything is up- not just food and gas. Transportation costs and shipping costs have elevated the price of everything. Thr left are just habitual liars- they should get right with God because the Bible states that liars (unsaved liars) who make lying their life’s goal daily, will not enter heaven.
[[Housing prices are soaring.
Car prices are soaring
Food prices go up every time I go to buy groceries
Energy costs are soaring
Fuel costs are still much higher than under Trump
Even the dollar state is $1.25]]
If we just throw all these out, don’t count them, then “prices are dropping” according to the wh expurts
I used to get 12 packs of Pepsi for around $3 when Trump was in office- made it about .25 cents a can- now it is about $9 a 12 pack too- making it about almost .80 a can
Have you had to buy lumber lately? Or any home repair materials? The prices are unreal
Yes. The Left has cultivated/groomed stupid/ignorant people via the public schools, for decades. These are the low-info voters Trump has referred to in the past. If they had any intellectual curiosity or logic & reasoning skills, they wouldn’t vote “D”.
BTTT
Was at Wal-Mart on Wed.
They have sold loves of French bread for YEARS at $1 a loaf-—baked at the store.
Used to buy 2-3 & put into freezer.
Wed==$1.24 a loaf——a full 24% increase.
Wal- Mart house brand of dog food==Old Roy kibble.
Was 40 cents a pound
NOW == 59 cents a pound
Federal agencies these days lie so much and so often (with impunity) that there needs to be legislation that will criminalize lying by individuals and department heads (to the press, or selective leaking) with severe/immediate penalties for violators.
An impromptu firing squad or tree limb/rope would be ok with me.
WAS in Lowe’s Wed-—
4x8 sheet of plywood-—the CHEAPEST kind with OSB on one side ==$20.85 a sheet. Used to be about $6.
The sheets with one side finished decently==$65.85 a SHEET
Inflation is a cruel tax that compounds its cruelty like a frog in a pot where the heat is slowly applied.
