I order groceries on line for pick up. Because I LOVE THIS FREE SERVICE!

That said, I pretty much order the same foodstuffs each week.

This week’s order was a full $25 MORE than last weeks!

Inflation is REAL, Mr. Richy Rich!

I also drove 10 miles to save 27-cents a gallon on gas. Wouldn’t have done that if I wasn’t on fumes, and I ran other errands while there. Saved myself $5.

Happy Days Are Here Again! *SPIT*

What an absolute cluster!

“sparking thousands of people to react to the March 13 article by Teresa Ghilarducci.”

This is the slitch who wants to “nationalize” your 401k. She said it back during the Obama administration. She’s dangerous and needs to be dealt with.

You see where it said to avoid buying in bulk?

During inflation, it seems to be a good idea to buy in bulk.

Were they going for the “noble lie”?

Ghilarducci makes suggestions in the piece like pivoting to vegetables in order to avoid inflated meat prices, and taking the bus to avoid inflated gas prices.

Or maybe we could stop electing politicians with no economic sense who destroy our economy and drive the prices of essentials through the roof.

Michael Bloomberg, and Teresa Ghilarducci at the launch of "Rescuing Retirement", one lentil at a time.

Another helpful suggestion from Teresa Ghilarducci: If your dog gets cancer, let him die.

"If you’re one of the many Americans who became a new pet owner during the pandemic, you might want to rethink those costly pet medical needs. It may sound harsh, but researchers actually don’t recommend pet chemotherapy — which can cost up to $10,000 — for ethical reasons.

I expect those most affected will adjust to inflation in the classic way by shifting away from relatively expensive items toward close substitutes.

No dumb ass we will shift away from communist idiots!!!!

A BLOOMBERG Opinion piece is getting backlash after a ‘tone-deaf’ tweet saying that inflation ‘stings most’ for those making under $300K a year.

This statement is quite true. it’s also quite true that a $300K income puts one in the top 5%.

Teresa Ghilarducci

These Clinton pukes NEVER go away. She’s the one back in Slick’s time who called for a one-time assessment of EVERY Retirement, 401K and pension fund out there to fund Hillwitch’s Healthcare. She was talking like 10-15%. A frigging socialist. Still is one.

Elections have consequences.

Stolen elections have really bad consequences.

Ah, yes. Another multi-millionaire elitist from the non-profit/academic/government track.

One of my “impossible reforms that should have been enacted yesterday” would be a law that government employees, as a group, could not be paid more, on average, than the average pay for full-time employees in the private sector. This calculation would include all fringe benefits.

After establishing the government pay standard as noted above, I would advocate a second reform to the effect that any not-for-profit organization that paid its employees above the federal standard would lose its not-for-profit status. Some nonprofits are notorious for having armies of very poorly paid worker bees, typically young people who are devoted to the cause, with very highly compensated leadership folks who run with the rich and famous. No more. Big charity should lose its tax favored status if the bosses are paid above the federal maximum and if the average compensation exceeds the private sector average. This would apply to universities as well.

I have absolutely no objection to people earning high incomes. But if senior management wants to pay itself very high salaries, the organizations they are milking for big bucks should not be tax exempt.

The logical endgame for these reforms, by the way, would be something we should do anyhow for myriad other reasons: abolish the separate corporate income tax and shift to a unitary income tax structure. Companies don’t pay taxes; individuals pay taxes. The time to tax corporate earnings is when they are paid out to individuals as wages and benefits to employees or dividends and capital gains to shareholders.
