Ah, Bloomberg. You so crazy. I especially love your latest article for a good laugh, which preaches to the people with whom you don’t freaking know or understand about how to deal with the current economy. I’m talking about the inflation caused directly by the current administration – namely, our Democrat president. You know, the one that you, Bloomberg, helped put there with your non-journalistic, leftist propaganda in and around the last election.
Remember how you did that, you blatant commies? I certainly do.
So, it leaves a bitter taste in my mouth when you feed me “ideas on how to reconfigure consumption and lessen the blow” about the current inflation. Especially when I know damn well that the economic environment we’re living in is one that you had a large part in creating.
Anywho. Your ideas are also tone deaf and dare I say dumber than a box of rocks. Let’s unpack them, shall we?
One, we’re supposed to “budget” now. As opposed to not budgeting before? Gee thanks, Mom and Dad. Appreciate the life advice there.
Two, “when it comes to food, don’t be afraid to explore. Prices for animal-based food products will certainly increase.” So your answer to Biden’s runaway inflation? Naturally, it’s eating more lentils instead of meat. In North Korea, grass is considered a vegetable, y’all! And as we all recall, in Venezuela, they eventually had to “explore,” too. They ended up hunting for their food in the zoo. Such inspo for thinking outside the box, huh?
Good times.
Here’s a super helpful Bloombergian tip for you pet people out there:
If you’re one of the many Americans who became a new pet owner during the pandemic, you might want to rethink those costly pet medical needs. It may sound harsh, but researchers actually don’t recommend pet chemotherapy — which can cost up to $10,000 — for ethical reasons.
Ah yes. If your dog gets cancer? SCREW THAT FURRY LEECH. I mean, you have LENTILS to pay for. Just wait, though, because I give it another year of this sh*tty economy and what do you want to bet (we don’t need to use real money for that bet, mind you, because none of us will have it by that point) that Bloomberg will be telling us that dog meat is a suuuuuper tasty alternative to lentils! So much protein, right Bloomberg?
Gawd.
And listen – y’all don’t reaaaaaaallly need your car, do you? (Well, unless you can buy a 60,000-dollar electric one, in which case, that’s totally fine, per the Biden administration.)
“Now may even be the time to sell your car. It certainly isn’t the time to buy a new or used one. Prices have stabilized a bit, but used-car prices are still up more than 40% from a year ago, and new ones are up 12%.”
Yeeeeah. Tell that to the people who rely on their cars for their jobs so they can make money to buy all those lentils to feed their kids, you shmucks.
But listen, if you simply don’t want to live off the teat of the government like the average liberal, maybe you can give up your furniture. Just sleep on the floor or something. And who needs appliances, when you’re just going to be eating plants out of your yard all day long?
The Bureau of Labor Statistics found people in recessions hold off on buying cars, furniture and appliances. Though they don’t cut back on travel, they do cut back on restaurants.
OMG this is complete madness.
You know what will really help soothe the sting of this inflation? ELECTING FREAKING CONSERVATIVES, that’s what.
