Honest question. Does this guy understand how things work At ALL?

Inflation is NOT price of goods.

0 Inflation, that $6 cereal stays at $6. It just does not go up to 6.10 that month..

And “greed” if A market makes a 2% profit after everything..

If a price due to inflation has doubled. And that market “makes”/ yakes home double on that same item.. it is STILL just 2%.. that is NOT “greed”.

Question: How does “corporate greed” only happen when there’s a Democrat in office??

They are counting on the public not knowing the details about what inflation numbers actually mean. You’re obviously 100% correct that 0% inflation doesn’t mean prices will automatically go back to what they were 4 years ago - or go down at all. We’ve been subjected to economic propaganda over and over and over by career politicians and bureaucrats.
