      The pro Biden/democrat media is purposely conflating (or confusing ) to make people think this isn’t collective inflation over 3+ years (near or higher than 20% inflated goods and services in last 3+years) and hoping people think it’s only 3% inflation in that 3+ year period. (Stephanopolis as we speak is saying inflation “eased” ) LoL

    Corporate profit from 2020 to 2023 has doubled in only three years, but from 2012 to 2019 it grew by only half a percent. There is no longer a supply chain issue, yet they keep increasing prices.
    This is Greedflation and it's plainly wrong

    Wow, a viewer can get dizzy from all the spin they put into this one. The rate of increase now is lower than the rate of increase when we told you that it wasn't happening and then when we ignored the story and then when we told you it was over with. (But prices are still going up a lot.)

    Inflation
    about a month or 6 weeks ago I posted a short article titled understanding inflation and I was showing through the reports of independent agencies how inflation has come down and the economy has increased even the chairman of the board of the Federal Reserve has said that we are in a booming economy the Labor Statistics show that unemployment is down the Consumer Price Index is inflation came down from 9% to 3% however people still felt like there is no improvement in the economy and the reason why is the 2 items that touches their lives that’s gasoline and food and in my article I have pointed out that gas and food is always the last 2 to correct itself and catch up with the economy and the prices will come down well today the report is that 1/10 to 1% of food prices and retail prices have come down along with gasoline and like I said it takes these 2 items the last for these to catch up to the economy and come down.

      Even if you get inflation to 0% on food, when food now costs.1.5x as much because of the years of rampant inflation, people are still going to feel that inflation, and remember how it was half the cost, 2 thirds the cost, just a few years back.

    • @tehpurplepills
      @tehpurplepills Před 24 dny

      Gov is the only people who can say "hey, your money is losing 3% of its value, instead of 10%, per year, and we did that, inflation is DOWN, aren't we doing a great job?" And then pat themselves on the back.
