Now to buy an aerosol can of deodorant the price is currently $8.57!

*IF* you can even find aerosol deodorant.

The three Kroger’s within 20 miles of my house have 1 brand (Arrid X-tra Dry, I believe in the gold can).

I have 3, but when I run out, I’m sure it’s going to cost me!

Purchase options have also been reduced. Everyone has their favorite brand of shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste, etc. Now, you sometimes have only two or three choices so just have to settle for what is available. Just like Bernie Sanders always said it should be. Some things you can no longer find even online.

I’m so sick of the articles at every financial news site telling us that the economy is doing great. It is simply the best ever in the history of the U.S., they inform us. The problem is that so many of the peons do not understand or appreciate that fact.

Of course, government employees are getting a raise. Politicians are getting a raise. And, those on tax-payer assistance are always getting an bennies increase or extra benefit. It is us middle class tax payers who are constantly getting the shaft!

Since Biden was put into office (fraudulently), my vehicle and house insurance has gone up over 50%. It has increased every da*n year. Prior to that, it would go up five or to ten bucks but I could plan on that. This year was definitely sticker shock!

And typical motorist pays $2,150 a year for full coverage car insurance.

That means on car and home insurance alone a household can expect to spend more than $3,700 a year.

I’m not “typical” then I just paid both, total $2,324.

Remember last year when ranchers had to kill chickens, when freight companies canceled transport contracts for cattle feed, when milk had to be destroyed, when fertilizer was not being delivered?

Remember all the food processing plant fires and explosions that seemingly marched across the country?

I guess all of that is finally showing up as higher food prices in the grocery stores.
