I’m old enough to remember when they told us that inflation was transitory. Remember when they first tried to blame gas prices on the weather in Texas a couple of winters ago? Then inflation was due to the war in Ukraine. Now, it just doesn’t exist. At least according to goblin woman, Janet Yellen.
HOST: "Have you been to the grocery store lately?"

YELLEN: "I sure have — I go every week."
HOST: "It's sticker shock, isn't it?"
YELLEN: "No."

You may not have sticker shock, Janet. But the rest of us, that have to actually go grocery shopping every week and aren’t getting paid absurd amounts of money from the tax payer and insider trading, do. If you’re thinking, “But wait, the White House says costs are going down.” I implore you to first of all, ask yourself, “self, why am I so stupid and allow myself to be gaslit?” Then I ask you to watch this video.
A man reorders his identical Walmart shopping list from 2022 for 45 items.

2022: $126
2024: $414
The same basket of goods nearly quadrupled in price in just two years!!

Almost QUADRUPLE! But hey, inflation is transitory. And Joe Biden is “doing the work.” If you were ever even considering voting for Joe Biden in November, watch this video again. If he (or whoever they replace him with) wins in November, it will only get worse.

A simple example- in 2020 a two-liter of RC Cola was $1 at Walmart, now it is $3.30.
Likewise, the items at Dollar Tree are now $1.25. They should change their name to “Five Quarters”! Speaking of cola, a 32 oz. bottle of Coke sold at Dollar Tree is $1.75, (plus the ten cent deposit here in Michigan). It’s smaller than the 2 liter bottle of RC Cola, yet costs more. This increase took place nearly eighteen months ago while Biden was in office. Anyone who says that prices are lower or there’s no inflation, aren’t affected because they have lotsa money and can afford anything — if not everything.
