That is right and the sad fact is..I doubt prices will ever go back down. At least most of them.

#1 “industry” of this age: slavery.
The Millstoners

Not sustainable. Jimmy Carter on steroids.
Wages on the low service sector end sky-rocketed and yet they are actually earning less dollar for dollar. Exactly what many said would happen.
I lived the Carter years and the Reagan years. Bought my first home with an interest of 13% and thought that was a great rate at the time.
Basically it is now costing the average person 20% more to maintain their life-styles.

Biden and the socialist dems are destroying this country faster than I could have imagined.
And the Dow is up over 100 right now.
It's always a good idea to exclude food and energy. Not everyone uses them.
As bad as the inflation is, at least you can find a job now. The Great Recession - prolonged for one miserable year after another by Obama’s idiotic policies - was far worse than even this.
This is why the Fed is not racing to raise the Fed Funds Rate.
