>No increase for you citizen Ferris. in fact they hope you die before you collect dime 1.

I mean, that’s the ‘hope’ of ALL entitlement Ponzi schemes like SS/MediXYZ *shrug*.

Damn, in that photo Carlin looks exactly like my cousin, Whitey Bulger.

Before Comey and Mueller had him hit in prison.

>Our standard of living is being engineered down and we’re not supposed to notice.

I mean, as the (D) & (R)N(C) KEEP voting in the SAME, time & time again, it appears the People don’t care (or they’d be changing their voting habits) *shrug*

“Most important election E-V-E-R”...again *rolls eyes*

Sometimes they try to hurry it along

1) “Obamacare”

2) Covid-19(84)

Prices are up at least 10% in my area, maybe 15% - across the board. Where they get these numbers is a total mystery.

[Az Joe]

Someone needs to tell Joe that any sentence with the word “inflation” in it means prices are going up.

How about a little “deflation” for several months?

[OKSooner]

Tell me that 3.6% is for April and I'll believe it.

Tell me it's annualized and [further comment withheld because of language].

>Why have taxes, just print money. ~liberals.

Actually, semi-CORRECT.

Only MINTING is authorized via A1S10 (gold/silver). Esp. as govt CAN borrow all it ‘needs’.

It’s the ILLEGAL/extra-Constitutional SPENDING that’s the problem

[frank ballenger]

People only think it’s that bad. Biden corrected Erin Burnett for saying the inflation was 1.4% when Trump left. She tried using those “fact” things. He can set us all straight now.

Bidenomics is in full force and there is nothing to worry about. “People have more money now to pay for things with the higher prices.”

[chiller]

CBS radio calls it “rose less than expected.”

Local Phnx FOX TV called inflation. “cooling.”

Consumers know better.

[pas]

Just wait until the IRA kicks in. That will fix everything.

[donozark]

Everyone is complaining about car insurance rates. Just got my bill. Up 16%. No claims. Go figure. Biden can’t. Says we got $$ to spend.

Core CPI -- excluding foot and energy

Well, after you have to pay an arm and a leg, you've lost your foot.
