Actually, I have a lot of idiot Republican friends. Some of them are rich. I don't blame them for voting GOP. They should. It's the poor and middle class ones I shake my head and finger at. Idiots. Hell, I should be a Republican not them. I'm upper class.

Hollywood is dem, they are rich, Social media companies vote dem, most people in them are rich.

at 100k you are barely upper middle.

Masters in ChemE.

What's your degree in "Lesbian Albino basketweaving inscriptions"?

Well you remind me of the 1 in 100 doctors who is an anti vaxer. Most of your co workers vote Biden. They just don't tell you. How much do you and your coworkers make? If it's over 100K, you're simply out of touch with the average person who's living on around $50K

Just pointing out that inflation is more often than not permanent.

Well, since WWII we've aimed for around 2% inflation so .... And in 2000 and 2021 we actually had deflation. But I think some of the more progressive posters on the board (assuming any are left) disagreed with my saying we should have halted policies tending to create more consumer demand sooner.

I'm only upper class because I'm a 1 person household. No kids. If I had 1 kid I'd fall right to middle class.

Hollywood Dems are new money. And they aren't afraid of going broke. Most rich cons were given the money from daddy. And they are sooo afraid of going broke. Self made millionaires vote Democratic.

Not ones that own small businesses.

I like how the "conservatives" act like they are fabulously wealthy until inflation came back. Now they are acting like a few cents more on a jug of milk is going to break them.

Love how you Leftards expose your fake ‘we care about the poor’ bullshit.

Only people taking care of the poor are conservatives.

Supply and demand have gone up and down, but have we ever returned to a White Castle slider being 5 cents each?

Greed or profit or whatever you wish to call it.

Once a company has you used to paying an extra 10 cents for your slider due demand outpacing supply they have no good reason to go back down after supply and demand level out again.

You walk the walk, you talk the talk.

Barring any contrary evidence, you remain a progressive shitstain.

You seem to be just another crank that can only impotently gripe about shit.

You need to ask for a raise. If they say no, it's because you suck and don't deserve one.

With employers gearing up to boost spending on pay in 2022, there has rarely been a better time to go after a raise. Companies are setting aside an average 3.9% of total payroll for wage increases in 2022, the largest increase since 2008, according to a new report from the Conference Board, a private research group.

Wow! A 3.9% raise while prices skyrocket +7%!
Leftard utopia!

Putting down poor people. How Leftard of you.

With inflation they raise the price because they were forced to by rising costs of other things.

Those costs don't go down, unless you either figure out a way to make the thing cheaper, or deflation its.

Why does everyone think trying to make money on your own is greed?

Do you tell your employer "eh, I just need 95% of my paycheck this week, thanks!"

And you seem to be unable to actually verbalize your viewpoints, so barring that you are an SJW twat.

Is that why I can buy a 60” TV for just $350, because capitalism only makes prices go up?
You’re clueless about everything.

If only I had said that capitalism only makes prices go up you might have a point.

But as it is you are just putting up yet one more strawman

LMAO.

Man I wish just a few cents for a gallon of milk was all we are talking about!!! You're full blown fucking retarded.

Are you being disingenuous, or are you really this fucking stupid?

Explain in greater detail your point.

You have no interest in my viewpoints. You're just another jerk looking for a place to vent your rage.

Maybe Trump shouldn't have passed that tax break for everyone?

Fact-checking Republican attempts to blame inflation on Democrats

As the US economy gradually recovers from the coronavirus pandemic, prices are rising across the board with inflation exceeding the Federal Reserve's 2% target and reaching a 13-year high in June. Republicans have turned that jump in inflation into a political talking point, trying to place the...

Bullshit. You are not going to try to pin this on Trump. You own this lock, stock, and barrel.

You don't have any viewpoints, all you do is bitch about other's viewpoints. When was the last time you made an original post?
