The Comedian's "Economic Holocaust" ping list...
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
The Soviet Union suffered 70 years of bad harvests "due to inclement weather".
This bad weather ran along political boundaries and disappeared at the same time the Soviet Union did. It was the damnedest thing.
It has not been under their radar, it’s been under their carpet.
Seedless grapes at the Navy Commissary here in Memphis were $4.00 a lb 2 weeks ago. Food prices have skyrocketed out of site. Detergents, shampoo, cleaning supplies, TP, etc even more so.
Better learn to use COUPONS to cut your grocery bill. And buy sale items you have coupons for for your basic stock pile. Especially things like TP, cleaning products, detergents, hair grooming aid, etc.
Plan on paying twice as much for less, as they reduce the size/quantity of their products, while attempting to charge your more.
My advise?
If ya don't absolutely need it, don't buy it.
Leave it on the shelf.
Grow food in containers if need be. It works quite well with a little effort.
So the government and the banks that own it are lying to us??? I’m shocked! Just shocked.
Went to our neighborhood WalMart grocery store this morning and found lettuce at $1.98 a head, at that price they can keep it. Oh I live in North Texas.
Grow your own food, folks. And no, that’s not been outlawed (re. bills regulating commercial farming).
Seriously though, we the consumers have known this for a long time. It is CONVENIENT how they exclude energy and food from their inflation figures.
There you go. The 2 items everyone is most conscience of.
Food is way up. Kraft mayo in 30 oz. jars now instead of 32 oz. Many pasta items in 12 oz boxes instead of 16 oz. coffee 12 oz pound.
The Federal Reserve excludes food and fuel prices from its preferred gauge of inflation because they are often influenced by erratic weather patterns and political turmoil

The price of food is going up and the Government is feeding us Bulls***
It is excluded because it would show the truth.
yes and so is gas...where is the shortage?
This is the Ben Bernank’s version of “Let them eat cake!!!”
Only little people have food inflation!
They do know PRESCIOUSLY what they are doing.
As a baker, I have seen chocolate double in the last 2 years, and sugar is worse than that. Many many foods have had the sizes change and the price stay the same.
By the way,as far as I know,people who get “food stamps” can use coupons to lower their grocery bills. I spend less for two adults not on any aid per week than a disabled friend of mine gets
for one adult in food stamps.
Food prices soaring? Let’s subsidize corn farmers to grow corn for fuel.
Overpriced subsidized fuel. And the prices of food grow.
What a bunch of dumb asses.
And let’s subsidize Florida sugar farmers to pollute Florida? So we pay a higher price for sugar the the rest of the world.
What a bunch of dumb asses.
I can go on here. For quite a long time.
That was a deliberate and criminal act by our Soros regime bureaucrats.
To delete two basic necessities, energy and food, from the cost of living calculations is both irrational and calculated. Calculated to deceive, and nothing else.
