"Shrinkflation?" Isn't that how Biden's neurologist described what is happening to his brain?



Since he helped cause this, shouldn't he help take the blame?

lol

Biden is so freaking stupid

His policies drove up the prices of everything, the corporations are simply trying to keep things affordable by making them smaller.

How dare they try to help the people Biden hurt!

If they didn’t do this, imagine the price for the same size item at the beginning of his term and now? Double and more.

I looked up “shrinkflation” in the dictionary and it said “see Bidenflation.”

But Joe has already upped the ante and is calling it “greedflation.”

The dictionary entry for “greedflation” reads: see “superbidenflationexpialidocious.”

It is the way companies do business and I’ve learned that by being involved in the weekly trip to the grocery store for decades.

I doubt Joe Biden has had an experience similar to mine.

In Dr.Strangelove, George C. Scott as Gen. ‘Buck’ Turgidson
said: “Mr.President, we must not allow a mine-shaft gap!

Now, heroically, Joe Biden shouts we must not allow a snack food gap.

Funny if America responds and gives him a 65% approval by the end of this week.

Yeah, I have noticed this for a while, but I probably get out and buy stuff a lot more often than he does. Maybe Lunchbox Joe can propose some federal legislation on this.

Sounds like a clueless regime in search of an issue that they think will resonate with the little people and this is the best they can come up with.

Joe’s just now catching up to shrinkflation?
I first noticed that several decades ago. Get with it, Joe! Try to keep up.

“it still posted a 9% increased operating profit between 2021 and 2022.”

“Between 2021 and 2022, the inflation rate in the US was 4.70%, while in 2022 it was 8.00%”

So profit dollars grew at almost the exact same rate as their value declined.

In other words, the company created virtually no new value while *resident bidet debased the currency

A former 6.5 ounce can of tuna is now a can with 4 ounces of tuna. And everyone noticed when rolls of toilet paper got shorter and a half gallon of orange juice is now a 54 ounce jug - but those two things happened long before Biden was president. Oops. Just looked. the 54 ounce jug is now down to 52 ounces. So Biden does get the credit for that.

I don’t know about anyone else, but it takes a lot longer for me to type “X (formally known as Twitter)” than it does to type “Twitter”.
