This is disproportionately affecting the working class the most. The invisible tax that destroys family budgets.

A lot of these news articles are bashing this administration, and rightfully so, I have yet to hear how we are going to keep these dictators that are occupying the White House from stealing the election again, we have to suffer for 3 more years.

That’s ok, the government will make up for it by forcing the working class to pay off the wealthys’ student loans.

Bought 60 pounds of locally-sourced beef last fall for my freezer - great price, wholesome meat.

It may very well be the last large meat purchase I make for a while.

The tweets were not even that mean. His tweets were funny because they were true. Liberals have no sense of humor or irony for that matter.

Does Breitbart mean 10% in April, or an annualized rate if 10% in April?

Can't wait to see what the Brandon administration puts together for the 4th of July cookout to show how prices have gone *down* in 2022.

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grammes a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be REDUCED to twenty grammes a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Of course, the true number is always much worse than the official statistics.

My wife has run a few comparisons of our food prices. Same exact items, same quantities, same store. 1 year apart. 23-25% increase in total bill.
