I DOUBT THEY WILL FOLLOW THROUGH.
It would be costly beyond their means to do so.
It’s probably just a placating measure for their constituents to make it look like they are doing something.....................
“They only want your debt, not your deposits.”
I have no debt so they’re out of luck.
A 12.6% increase....................
Good!
The difference between normal economic cycles and this is the cornestone of this idocy is the ridiculous “green energy” religion of the US-European Media-politcal class.
Go back to Trump era energy polcies and all this spirling out of control inflation flattens out.
Same here. My retirement savings is melting like the Wicked Witch of the West in a rainstorm........................
So Biden is going to make Carter look like genius
The Carter Years will look like a fond remembrance compared to what the Biden fiasco is engendering..............
meanwhile real inflation is more like 17% or 18%.
Put food, fuel and housing back in like they used to be when calculating the inflation rate. NOW what does it look like?
7.5% is the best they could lie it down to without getting laughed out the door.......................
And 1982 was the down hill side of the high point of inflation in that round.
The inflation rate right now is on the up hill side of this event.
18 months ago you could easily build a house around here for $150 a square foot. That has since just about doubled.
Gasoline has doubled.
Good thing we all have electric cars now.......................
I live in a fairly nice apartment in the suburbs. I know several older single women who live here who viscerally hate Trump and who voted for Biden. They are all shocked and angry at the rent increases announced but after looking around have noticed the rent and housing costs have gone up everywhere. I’ve taken great delight in making little comments about how groceries, gas, the rent, everything has gone up under Biden. They’re not ready to admit voting for him was a mistake but they’re definitely hurting.
I’ll buy a house in the outer outer suburbs now that I’m working from home permanently....and after the crazy housing market here cools down a little.
Hating mean tweets just got very expensive.
;-)
That is more believable.
“Elections have consequences.” - B. Obama...............
older single women ....... named Karen?.............
Right you are.
They wont include many every day expenses.
The only difference between Communism and Democrats is the spelling.
For all the Trump loathers who voted for this senile husk I recall Reagan’s …”Are you better off?”
