The Consumer Price Index has increased 18.6% from 261.582 in January of 2021 when Biden took office to 310.326 in February 2024.
Has your income gone up 18.6%, or did Biden make you POORER?
You are not imagining things.
You've been screwed.
Ask your neighbors if their incomes have gone up 19%, or if Biden stole their money too?
bttt
Ain’t Bidenomics great?
Stop it Jamie Dimon just said the other day the economy was booming.
Things are great.
Migrants and nonenforcement of the law have saved the economy as predicted.
Lets be clear.. DEMOCRATS made us poorer, Pedo Joe is just their inept puppet.
I’m betting that the actuaries of the insurance industry have better integrity than the ones used by federal agencies.
Car Insurance rates went up 20% last year.
That 18% is a lie or a general average. Like I posted a few days ago we ate at Taco Bell’s for the first time since 2020 ( my kids like to eat at mex places so no reason to go to Taco Bell). And I think the prices are almost 100% higher now.
Ex their reg tacos now like $2.39 used to be about a buck.

It going to get worse. Inflation is just the first act. The second act are the increases in taxes to cover the cost of inflation. The givermint needs their income too. Local and state givermints can’t print money like the Feds.....
“The Consumer Price Index has increased 18.6%.”
This is not the 100%-200% suppliers are now price gouging for products. So it is actually 100% and more for most products.
18.6%?? Who are they kidding? My grocery bill is up more than 60% at Wal Mart. Items that totaled $97 in July 2021 today cost $161. I have the receipts to prove it.
Price gouging is a commie phrase.
I have been a businessman all my life. Price gouging is a greedy fact. Anyone who approves of it is immoral and greedy.
Period...
Does this data include housing and transportation figures? Because last I heard, those had been removed from the equation. It’s more like 30% with those added in.
Worse than that if you are buying a house or used car.
Let’s go Brandon!
The lie is in the makeup of the index. Optional things are even cheaper on a lot of items as people are cutting back but things such as food, energy etc are well above this 18% smokescreen.
So the rich benefit and the struggling middle class gets it in the neck.
Bullshit.
Food has DOUBLED in cost.
I would say that 18.6 is too low comparing my expenses now to 2021.
