70% of those with under $40,000 income reported severe hardship from current inflation.

I am not surprised. The lower end is getting killed right now and the middle is getting squeezed.

As an aside:

You know those gold foil-covered chocolate coins you can buy at See's Candies?

They've recently changed their design. They used to be stamped to depict actual United States currency. Now they are stamped with "See's" designs front and back.

Was someone concerned that with mounting inflation, someone would try to pay for something with chocolate contraband coins?
