Grocery Prices have soared.

What will that do in the short term? Just put a wannbe dictator back in office?
The issues that plague our economy go back 15+ years...but..no will to actually address them.
Easier to just go to your corner.

A better president and a congress willing to work for America's best interests rather than political self-interest could make a difference very quickly.

A better president and a congress willing to work for America's best interests rather than political self-interest could make a difference very quickly.

And in what reality with Donald John Trump as President and Republicans in control of the House and Senate do you think that is going to happen?

Answer..it won't.

 

[Harry Dresden]

We were saying that in the 2000's. And don't act like this wasn't true the 4 years Trump was president. If it was, then it was true on Obama's watch too right? And probably just as true now.

And for years we've talked about people who retire need to consider inflation before they stop working.

You're acting like this wasn't an issue on Trump's watch. Or that it's getting harder for you because Biden is president.

What are you saying here Captain Obvious?

And remember this when in 10 years you guys are telling us we need to take a 25% cut in our social security. Talk about inflation. So fuck retirees now. They are getting 100% of their social security and medicare right?

AND, my dad got a big Cost Of Living COLA raise on his social security. So did every senior. Because of inflation. So waaah burger!!! Boomers are the ones who RUINED America those selfish mother fuckers.

bobo all you sound like is a die democrat....whether you want to believe it or not....not everyones quality of life is like joe biden is trying to tell us it is....

 

[sealybobo]

and they will have less product in the bags too....

I refuse to go to the dollar store across the street. Maybe for batteries but that's it. And chocolate bars. And surran wrap. But that's it. And birthday cards.

Something specific. Batteries is a good one. At the normal stores batteries are expensive at the dollar store I can get 6 for $1.25. I don't want to buy a 20 pack.

I buy my dog sardeens for $1.25.

But that's it!

Toilet paper. But if they have shrunkflated, like sponges, I may just buy them at the big boy stores from now on.

Which is still lower than inflation around the world.

You think that will help the demented one?

 

[Montrovant]

You now can't buy a small plastic sack of snacks for under $25.

That's an odd turn of phrase. A "small plastic sack of snacks"? Is that purchasing one item that comes in a plastic bag, or are you saying you can't fill a grocery bag with snacks for under $25?

I can't believe he's going to let Grocery Store owners dictate who our president is.

 

[Unkotare]

I lived through Carter .....

Is "you'll live through" the goal? Is that all you look for in your representatives? What a chump.

You looking forward to waiting hours in line for gas on the even or odd days you're allowed to buy it at all based on your license plate number again? Why don't we send Iran some hostages so you can complete your nostalgia tour?

 

[sparky]

The $$$ of spring pigs are up!

~S~

 

[Auld Phart]

How about we get a better president?

I don't see one on the horizon

 

[Moonglow]

You evidently support the tissue industry what with all the crying you do for the government to help you.

President Joe Biden is regularly promoting signs of a strengthening economy and easing inflation, but when it comes to the indicator closest to home, it’s a tough sell.

The surge in grocery prices since just before the Covid lockdown has been stunning: up more than 25%, a full 5 percentage points more than consumer prices overall.

Yep, the economy is doing just great, it's just your pocketbook that's suffering.

They've been heading down in recent months.
Price spikes a result of supply chain issues due to a worldwide pandemic.

No, it's a result of EO 13990 which brought on the highest fuel prices in America, and it takes fuel to transport groceries to markets.

You mean before Trump shut down the US and paid them to stay at home.

No. Fuel price increases were brought on by a war precipitated by the 3rd largest oil producer in the world....and then massive profiteering by oil companies that took advantage of the situation.

Honestly, you really should brush up on how things work.

 

[Moonglow]

They be high because the price crashed and the industry shut down due to the Trump flue.

I can still remember Reagan telling us to tighten that belt another notch cause things were gonna get tough.
