Do you feel the inflation?

I feel the price gouging and massive corporate profits. Inflation is under control.

"Under control"? Is that why it increased in December?

Yes. After Krispy Kremes, I definitely feel fatter.

Absolutely! Inflation is unbelievable! 😬

So the restaurant owners whose rent went up and who pay more for all food items are price gouging when raising their prices?

I used to air up my tires at the gas station for 25 cents....now it's $2.00

Inflation is insane!

Yup I would say that our weekly grocery bill has gone up.

we shop once a week, same store every time. Our typical $150 is now in the mid $180s.

Nothing inflates me like these right wing circle threads.

Keep 'em coming, boys!

This and I will include that people misunderstand what raised wages amounts to in fast food. Certainly, I agree with paying fast food workers a wage where they can be okay.

However, if you have a Taco Bell franchisee with only one restaurant, despite all of the business they generate, it's understood that your profit range for a year will be only $120k-$150k... again, for the whole year.

So these businesses themselves are not gouging. One can say that Yum Brands is gouging but they are operated by PepsiCo.

If PepsiCo took less of a profit, prices could drop, but no Board of Directors of PepsiCo would keep a CEO who lowered profits for the parent company.

So here is where we are.

The upshot: If you're loaded, inflation is just like any other day in paradise.

Joe Biden said he fixed everything.

Can't be real right-wingers. Someone mentioned "price gouging" and profits, but conservatives are for free markets.

There's producer price DEFLATION lol.

Gas is historically pretty cheap now.

The inflation narrative was a big nothingburger... people's incomes are up more than enough to pay an extra BUCK for eggs lol.

Pathetic.

Yes I feel the inflation. I've stopped going out for lunch completely in favor of packing my lunch - I can afford the expense but 20+ for a lunch after tax and tip just doesn't sit right with me. I'm also very picky choosy now with going out for dinner. Same deal - lousy meal and lousy service so I can pay 100 bucks for a night out with the wife? Meh.

Aw, come on. I'm talking about the right wing circle jerk. And guess which part is inflated, poor boy!

Bidenflation has cost every American about 20% since he took office. So that $5 million you had before he took office is now effectively worth $4 million. Thanks Joe. Bidenomics at it’s finest.

Just your shoe-size IQ.

The day after the Presidential election, gas at my local station was $1.79. For most of the past three years, it has been around $3.19. That's a 78% increase for most of the past three years.

Over the last several weeks, gas prices have dropped to $2.79... that's still a 56% increase.

I'm perfectly fine with inflation, but then again I'm perfectly fine with Joe Biden showering with his daughter.
